Majestic and imposing exterior which is slightly lost inside now (although the main bar front is still very striking with its tiling). I should have spotted that it was a "gay" pub by the fittings around the places - light fittings and mirrors etc.,were all a bit twinkley and twee ! Brain's Bitter and their IPA were available - the Bitter was drinkable but didn't blow my socks off. So long as the main structure and integrity of this pub is maintained it will still be valid as a classicly architectural pub but it would be great to see it put back to its original internal condition!

Beautifully preserved pub in parts, particularly the bar and tiling, though has been stripped back a bit too much inside. Beer nothing special (Brain's Bitter only). As previous posters have noted, now a gay pub.

Good fun. Very camp. Nice crowd. Basic Brains Bitter, so not really an ale pub.

Gay friendly I'd say more than a gay pub. Good cheap booze,Brains SA and Dark were on and were both excellent. Friendly staff and punters. Doors on both cubicles in the gents. No fault could be found.

Possibly the only pub in the UK without a door on the shithouse ...
