Strange pub at lunchtime. One never knows if its open or not. Went there today at about 1:30. Doors open, tables ready outside, chef busily doing chef things. Waited 8 minutes and eventually a bemused chap said "we are not open 'til 3". "couldn't you let us know?" "Its not our policy". OK short trip to the better and more friendly Prince Regent.

Large open single-room style place, good food and a good place to watch the footie IF you can get a seat. Staff always pleasant but sometimes overwhelmed. Lacks somewhat in atmosphere. Reviewer below was fortunate to visit on a day when there were "no idiots or lager louts in" - there usually are.

Ireally enjoyed this pub. I went in for a quick with a work friend on a friday evening but ended up staying for a while because the atmosphere was no nice. Nice candles lighting all tables, back ground music just right, you can hear it but can also hear yourself talk, good pub for the conversationalists!!

Just heard that the pub has been sold to a Russian company so watch this space for changes

Re Last entry, the manager must have had a bad day because I have always found him affable and interested. I don't go in the evening so it may be the atmosphere changes at night. I agree about the price of the food.
