Another new team behind the bar, but the place remains the same. Still get a decent pint for under £2! Taddy Lager, £1.95 when I went. Usual Sam's range, though not all of them. I like it anyway.

A refurb was done here about 4 years ago. Had a lot of managers in the last 2 years some ok but apparently all got the sack. Seems strange, but the regulars go on as the other reviewer says forever! Beer usually good and pub is clean, you are always made to feel at home. A pub mostly for older drinkers, you can have a natter and the locals are friendly lots have a good yarn to tell you. Recommended.

WYSIWYG. One of those full-all-day type pubs, serving the Sam Smith's range. No more Diat Pils - they've stopped making this haven't they? - but cheap enough to make a visit worthwhile. Landlords have come and gone in recent years but the down-to-earth clientele go on, seemingly forever.

It used to be the case that if you went in there on most days, you could see Flash Flanagan, ex Hull and Rovers star of the sixties, in there supping, and have a beer with him.

The last time I went in here, they had Ayingebrau Pils on tap, which was 6.5%. Absolutely vicious brew for lunchtime drinking when I worked on George Street.

Marvellous.

Nice atmosphere. Plenty of black and white photos (and some of the other team as well - ha) for a nice history of rugby in Hull.

And anyone that knows anything about drinking and visits Hull usually pays a visit to the Rugby Tavern.

I found a Rugby Tavern in London recently, in Holborn, but it wasnt really the same. They play Union down there you know.

I used to frequent the Rugby in the early 90s, because i worked at the casino down the street. It was always a decent place and we had staff parties there too!
