This appears to have re-opened in January 2009 but I haven't been in to review it yet.

Walking up Woodbridge Road I noticed the iron shutters had disappeared from this pub. On closer inspection I was delighted to discover it has reopened and all my previous comments about permanent closures and flying pigs have been proved wrong. Would have gone in to see how things were inside, but I had my 4 year old with me and there was a sign on the door emphatically banning children ( good idea in a community pub trying to build daytime trade?). There were blinds behind the windows so I couldn't even peer in to see what ales might be on offer. Anyway it's great to see the Horse and Groom back in business and I hope it will succeed even without family custom.

I went into the Horse and Groom a few days ago, and it was a lovely friendly atmosphere. It has recently been overtaken by new landlord and landlady. they have sky Tv, and a very up to date jukebox. they have their very own dart and crib team, with nicely prepared old fashioned food. not just frozen chips and sausages. etc. all in all i will be a regular customer.

What a shame. I came in here when I lived round the corner a few years ago, as did my Dad just after WW2 and his Dad in the 30s. We all liked it as it served the function in ways fitting for each time. This just shows - the traditional pub is dead, largely thanks to government policies. How can it cope when supermarkets sell beer more cheaply than it can buy?
Now kids get drunk on cheap booze at home and go into town to throw up on and fight / shag each other.
