| Blimey, what a superb ale selection ! the landlady is a real charmer, if she really used to be a "madam" she can walk over me in high heels anytime she likes ! The beer was as bright as a penny, I loved the Old dairy and the pub was spotless ! Simple fare but good value for money and very well cooked and presented. Just what a pub should be. Pleasing also to see that lager drinkers can behave themselves when the threat of being whipped is forever a latent one. Loved it ! Sessionmaster - 10 Jan 2012 08:11 |
| I could have sworn wrote a brief review of this pub earlier this year but it seems to have gone missing. Anyway, I noticed the addition in the GBG and I'm glad to read here that it's doing well, I've not been out to Borough Green for a while so I'll have to make the effort to visit again, a very nice pub as I recall.

| May I be the first to congratulate the landlady of this pub for a well deserved entry into the Good Beer Guide 2012. Beer wise you'll have a choice of four, two of which are local and regular house beers, always spot on, never a disappointment. As for the pub itself I've never seen one so clean and well kept. Good food, a very nice atmosphere and a joyful absence of irritating TV's and fruit machines. A couple of years ago I wouldn't have set foot in this pub, it really was rather awful but now it is truly revived and thriving, a good thing to see when so many others are neglected or closing down. I wouldn't usually go to the effort to produce reviews but in this case I understand the landlady has had some horrendous difficulties to deal with over and above pulling this pub together which makes the fact of its transformation particularly remarkable and worthy of credit. If you haven't visited yet then I can thoroughly recommend you give it a try. rprichyp - 11 Sep 2011 15:54 |
