| Having visited again to find the lovely couple have left for pastures new no food offering, poor selection of drinks and my husband descbribed the beer as "shabby at best" so all in all not the best visit mijdykes - 26 Jan 2009 01:17 |
| Went back for a further pilgrimage nine months later, to find them somewhat surly and "no we don't serve food and we never did" - well you did last time I came "ah that was the last landlord who did a runner" and "all we ever served in the past was ploughmans" (so you did serve food after all). A disappointing start, as I'd arranged to meet sisters, husbands, kids etc from the West Mids, so they had to go to the Cherry Tree to eat. But still a remarkable interior and three beers from the barrel. Just shame it wasn't a tad more welcoming. baggydave - 16 Jan 2009 23:39 |
| The second time I have been to this pub in the last 6 months. There is no doubt that the building is wonderful, the setting is perfect and the outside loo's take me back to my early drinking days, but, the beer range has dropped massively, just 1 beer on yesterday and that was not in great nick. If this wonderful pub could sort this out I'm sure it would be very popular. imdownthepub - 6 Apr 2008 08:04 |
| After my last posting just had to pay a pilgrimage on Sunday. To my relief it was still as good as I remember, actually better now that it is a true free house and doesn't have to serve that GK rubbish. Surely the best pub in the UK. Even retained its outside toilets. baggydave - 5 Mar 2008 23:55 |
| Nice old pub featured in the CAMRA infantry of "unspoilt pub interiors". Watch out for the JCB driving owner who knocks the pub over (with the customers inside) if he's refused a drink after time. pubinspectors - 28 Jul 2007 13:24 |
