Went in the Wed before Christmas at about 5pm and the pub was packed with a good mix of customers. Crop Circle was excellent, pub clean and homely. 9/10. An old girl was regailing the customers with christmas drinking stories causing much hilarity, log fire was burning, to be honest is doesn't really get much better than this. I was impressed.

Very quiet tonight, hardly anyone in...
Last time I was here the place was rammed..
The beer selection and barmaids have declined too, ended up drinking weakish GFB poured by a bored looking Estonian lass.

Visted this lovely looking pub for the first time recently. Fantastic aestetics, warm, good selection of whisky, small selection of ales.
Unfortunatly one of the regulars stood at the end of the bar was extremly rude to my friend and I and nothing was done about it. Would love to go back given the history of the place and its charm, but there are other nice pubs in salisbury where you will not have to be insulted and the patrons are friendly. a shame :(

Paid my first visit to this pub on Friday and can't say I was too impressed. The pub is on CAMRA's National Inventory for it's interior, which is admittedly impressive, but I was left with the unmistakeable impression that whoever is running this pub is extracting the urine big time. GFB is £3.20 a pint while Summer Lightning is an astonishing £3.50. I had a pint of the GFB which was not well kept.
Normally I would say a pub is worth visiting for the interior alone, but I'm going to make an exception this time as this place needs a hefty kick up the arse.

What a shame! Beautiful building, pity about the beer and staff.
Courage Bitter and GK IPA of dubious quality and £3.30 pint (pre - VAT increase)

Barmaid reading a book while tables left with dirty glasses and other debris.

This should be a flagship outlet in Salisbury not the tired mess it is. A real shame. Could be wonderful with proper management.

Visit for a quick look at the building only.
