Alas, this pub has been run by an ever worsening series of landlords since Neil and Tats left more than a decade ago.

A local gang associated with the Sadler family began using the pub as their base leading to no end of trouble in the village. Over recent years, there have been numerous incidents originating from pub patrons ranging from destroying the village Christmas tree, to stealing the main telephone cable for scrap metal, to regular vandalism of cars and drug dealing. There has been targeted verbal abuse of villagers from the pub garden and smoking area to the point that several families have sold up and moved from the village to avoid it. The landlord seems at best unwilling to deal with the behaviour and at worst complicit.

Given the lack of custom, there is much speculation regarding the actual business model of the pub. There is not much in the way of real ale beyond Greene King bilge, The food is very variable and the family that runs the pub is notorious for being abusive to respectable customers. It is a great shame as not only could it be a lovely pub but it has also been the source of a great deal of unhappiness for villagers. Best avoided, as is the Plume of Feathers up the road.

Glad you survived fugglehops. Can be a bit Jeremy Kyle Show on account of the regulars. Visited for the first time in ages at the weekend for a swift couple and not bad at all. Rear garden has been opened up. Alas, the chavs referred to below are back.

What happened with my last review? Thought I had double vision trying to read it.
The three guest beers this time were; New River's Five-inch drop, Mad Squirrel APA from Red Squirrel brewery and GK's Golden Breeze.
They were in good condition but not top condition.

The mushroom pizza left a bit of a runny tummy the next morning.
I was not very pleased with the number of dogs roaming around our table whilst trying to eat.
Dog owners and pub staff need to be more responsible.

Strange place. Once was enough but persuaded to try again by work colleagues and just the same. Empty except for some creepy types hanging around the smoking area. There are some nice pubs within easy distance of here like The Horns and Grandison.
