| A no frills, street corner boozer in the centre of this small village, it consists of two rooms in an L-shape configuration. It appears very much a local’s pub, and was very male dominated with some colourful language and a somewhat sweaty aroma when I visited, although that is of course no doubt a reflection of the clientele on that particular occasion rather than the pub in general. The larger of the two rooms runs across the front of the pub and is largely devoid of any furniture, with just a small bench seat at one end and a couple of small tables and chairs at the other. Flooring is wood strip, and there was a large brick fire-place at one end which looked well used along with a TV up in the corner and a darts board. The other smaller room to the side was described as a lounge, but other than some carpet on the floor it had a similar rough and ready appearance to the main bar. There was another small TV in here although this was not in use, and a couple of photo’s depicting pub sports teams and the village from years gone by. All of the punters in the pub subsequently came in here and engaged in some type of casino style game on a folding table. Beers on tap were Greene King IPA and London Pride. I tried the latter, and whilst I’m no expert it struck me as being past it’s best with a slight whiff of vinegar. The solitary cider was Strongbow, unfortunately. Blackthorn - 12 Jun 2013 10:59 |
| A good choice whether you're intending to go with the family or on your own, relaxin' with a newspaper. The food is always top value and the service excellent with smiley staff. bathavon - 5 Aug 2010 11:43 |
