| This pub has been known to me for 28 years but until recently I'd only ben in it twice. Heard it was under new management and that they intend to modernise the place. I'm all for traditional interiors but the 1970s lino bar and pseudo-trad horsebrass combo really does need some updating! Apparently this is to take place after the Smoking Ban for obvious reasons, so time will tell. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Scud now stocks some mmore diverse beers in addition to the bog standard Courage Best - Hook Norton Best, Wells-Youngs Bombardier and Hop Back GFB have all been noted recently. Granted, the quality of some of these was dubious, probably due to the lack of interest from the current regulars (mostly leather-clad biker types which Redhill still specialises in!), but that may change if their reputation and appeal broadens over time. Moreover, the lad bhind the bar was very keen to receive feedback and when told one of the ales was off, he immediately set about changing it and offered a free sample of the new beer by way of quality control! Can't comment on food, and perhaps the wine needs attention in future too! However, I suspect the new licensee's heart is in the right place and the Scud may at last be going in a better direction. Watch this space. TWG - 30 May 2007 09:48 |
| I'm looking forward 1 July as most of the customers appear to smoke and the air is very smokey. Very friendly bar staff but agree with the previous comment about the wine! wendyk - 11 May 2007 14:05 |
| Popped in here on a Saturday just before 3pm, more than pleasantly surprised by the service, the garden and the food! lizad96 - 22 Aug 2006 09:04 |
| Lovely pub with good beer. Pleasant atmosphere, nice relaxing beer garden. Regular live music events and an all new pub quiz on Thursdays. The quiz is varied, with photo and music questions and random spot prizes. Worth checking out. anonymous - 7 Jul 2006 17:54 |
