Popped in for a festive tipple after work with a few mates, enroute to town. Ignored by staff despite waving the contents of my purse at the bar (despite the fact there we all of 15 people in the premesis at the time). This place is really the pits, a friend warned me about the lack of hospitality at this place a long time ago. I should have heeded his warning. I'm frankly flabberghasted by the lack of professionalism at this dive. A prime example of what a bar should'nt be! Steer well clear of this pit.

Avoid this place at all costs. The staff are thoroughly miserable, the toilets are a disgrace and the beer is warm and watered down. You have been warned - what a dump!

Had to wait 10 minutes to be acknowledged by one of the disinterested staff before paying over the odds for a warm pint and red wine served in an ice bucket, left immediately. Awful excuse for "pub".

This used to be the Lord Nelson, which was a smokey (proper) pub with 2 pool tables and a darts board. They've got rid of the friendly staff, lamo'd the floors and brought in the Euro beers and surly barstaff. Not a place I'd go off my own back, but if a crowd of us were in the area its ok for one or two before going somewhere better.
