| This pub seems to have closed. It's all boarded up and the building was for sale. DrunkLove - 17 Mar 2006 18:03 |
| I was really surpsised by the interior having driven past this pub on many occasions yet never been in. Felt like I was sitting in someone's living room or in a B&B, definitley not a pub feel. This is no criticism however as we were made to feel very welcome, the friendly Irish landlady (I presume?) showed us to the fire when we arrived bloody freezing and even turned it up for us and was very chatty. Nice pint of Spitfire but Late Red had run out which was the only reason we shivered our way up here from the Britannia. Landlady was very hospitable tho and told us when she was getting more in so I'll be back later in the week! Cleversaz - 22 Nov 2005 01:32 |
| Seems to have acquired what can only be described as rather downmarket clientele, if my visit last Saturday afternoon was typical. Admittedly it was after 3 pm, but there was no sign of the pub doing food at all, so has the chef referred to in the Feb 05 posting disappeared already ? Spitfire was on form, but this seems to be a pub with little, if any, beer trade, so I'm not sure if this will always be the case. I can't see myself rushing back here, given that the splendid Red Cow is close at hand JohnBonser - 9 Aug 2005 13:17 |
| Having just moved to the area I needed a good, friendly welcoming drinking establishment within staggering distance and the 'Finger' is certainly that. Great pub, good range of Ales and Beer, (not the usuall stuff you find on the high street), never too crowded, and great barstaff! The only critisism I have is that it could do with a coat of paint! (Which I am sure my flatmate and I could do for a few ales!) Hans_Brix - 28 Jul 2005 14:21 |
| This pub has had it's fair share of problems, however, the new Irish team running it have hospitality down to a tee and are slowly but surely putting the place in order. It is in a great spot, away from the madness of Richmond High Street on a Friday and Saturday night. Could do with a lick of paint inside, but other than that, a great place to get a drink and tease the bar maid! sledge89 - 28 Jul 2005 14:12 |
