| Recently taken over (mid-September 2011) by a very enthusiastic couple. Talked with them over a pint of IPA. Massively improved from previous tennants! Matt is a great guy who's passionate about caring for his pub and beer (they actually clean the lines now, unlike the last slob). Jo is a lovely lady who takes care of the cooking. Again, much improved and could be one of the best places for pub food in Ely very shortly. I was there Friday 23rd Sept 2011 and they had a live act in the pub. The atmosphere was electric with people dancing all over the place, it was a great night out. Bright start and a bright future I think. rider - 24 Sep 2011 22:37 |

| Another visit to Ely, but this time instead of traipsing round looking for a pub we came straight in here. It was very much as we found it six months ago. Still two courses for £5.95 and the food again was hot, tasty and filling. The Greene King beer is still here but this time the 'guest' was Gangly Ghoul, a superb dark rich ale fruity and hoppy. It shows G.K. can produce tasty beer. Once again a very enjoyable lunch. Oh, and Alan is still wearing his Bermuda's!!! fugglehops - 29 Oct 2010 21:20 |
| Time was running out and this was the fifth pub I had tried to get a midweek lunch. The previous four were rubbish. Upon entering I noticed it was a Greene King pub - another disappointment coming up I thought. You know what the beer is going to be. Abbot with IPA or Old Speckled Hen rubbish and not a guest beer in sight. Making my way to the bar there were quite a few people already eating but with enough vacant tables to eat at. Abbot and OSH were on but also a guest, albeit from the G.K. range, Alepril Fool. I decided to stay. The choice of food is vast. We went for the £5.95 two course meals. The bacon and onion suet pudding and the liver and bacon with mash was fantastic. This is home made food at its best and plenty of it too. A lovely sweet to follow really blows you out. I personally thanked the landlord, Alan, (he'll be the one wearing Bermuda shorts and shirt) on the choice and quality of the food. Most of my reviews knock rather than praise pubs. Reading the previous reviews I should be knocking this place - but I can't. This was a lunchtime visit, maybe it changes mood in the evening. 8 out of 10 for the food.......1 for the beer because it was GK. fugglehops - 10 Apr 2010 19:06 |
