| I used to drink in this pub quite regularly but hadn't been for a couple of years now. It seems to be geared up for sports fans with several large screen TV's about the place. It was quite busy for a lunchtime with people eating and they have a large courtyard area outside for smokers. I had a couple of pints of the Nethergate Umbel Magna, they had 2 other real ales on. Very pleasant pub, probably catering more for the younger drinkers and sports fans . Certainly worth a visit if in this part of the town though. Professor_Peach - 24 Aug 2011 15:36 |

| Three ales, all non-Greene King which in theory is a plus for a pub in East Anglia. However the two I tried (Wherry and Old Speckled Hen) didn't taste right. Slightly Wetherspoon-ish: not off, but not how they should be either. One of the bar staff was courteous enough, but the other was very unfriendly and spoilt the visit for me. Clean, sterile, slightly old fashioned (in a 1980s sense) interior. Quiet, on a Sunday mid-afternoon, but the barman and the few lager-quaffing casuals watching the big screen made for a slightly edgy atmosphere. Not worth going out of your way for.

| Yes it has a big telly and a quiz / fruit machine but this pub is just 200 yards from the Greene King brewery and has the marvellous nerve to serve not just Adnams but a couple of guest ales too - when we visited there were 2 crackers from the local Nethergate brewery in Clare. So impressed were we with 1 of these that we returned later in the evening to try it again. Thursday night at 10 p.m. and no sign of the oiks or idiots referred to by other reviewers... editor - 24 Mar 2009 10:27 |
| Plush quiet lounge, traditional bar,off sales in between - just right ! - BUT THAT WAS IN 1969 , when we used to help 'do the bottles' (replace stock from cellar) after school and in the summer holidays. Now it has a dirty great plasma screen and is full of idiots. Is this really what people want?? greenarrow - 10 Aug 2008 10:18 |
