| Service is nearly always prompt. The beer (real ale) is OK but prices a little bit on the high side. Always busy at weekend and mostly friendly and I've never heard of any trouble taking place. IMG1975 - 20 Nov 2011 17:36 |
| The new folks running this place have started well, a definite improvement on previous visits. The Sleighbell wasn't to my taste (I'm still trying to find an Everards beer that I like) but the ever reliable Bombadier was well kept. The place got slightly mobbed out by Gooners watching AFC on the box but, all in all, a nice friendly, atmosphere. Will be back. LesP - 7 Jan 2011 08:29 |
| Large spacious bar on entering and four ales on. Tried the Wadworth's Farmers Glory which was a good pint. They have a kind of garden shed-cum-conservatory where the pool table lives and then an excellent covered smoking area with telly and dartboard beyond that followed by a large-ish garden. Definitely a top rating for smokers and the ale was pretty decent as well. Best beer in this part of town (yep - even though the Carpenters is over the road). Snarling_Mallard - 31 Jul 2010 00:03 |
| Quite a large single-bar pub, with a big covered area out back for the smokers plus a substantial (if sparsely equiped) beer garden and a couple of benches at the front. The large Sky Sports banners out front didn't bode too well for real ale, but I was pleased to find four handpumps offering a selection of Directors, Clark's Westgate Gold (£3.25) and a couple of other guest beers. And yes, there are loads of screens (both large and small) showing several channels of non-stop sport. rpadam - 22 Jul 2010 22:22 |
