| “BEST PUB IN THE UNIVERSE! I had the pleasure of meeting Mother some 10 years ago and as an ex-landlord myself, marvel at the gorgeous creature! She owns what can only be described as the last bastion of a Local and commands respect from everyone who has ever been blessed with the opportunity to visit. She also suffers no nonsense, and her direct talk of sense and good manners fills this unique menagerie with a whole cross section of ages that create a warm and friendly melting pot. The views across town are magnificent; the Shove Ha'penny slate is the best one could play on (even boasting the obligatory heat lamp;) the standard of Table Skittle play is breathtaking (Don't ever take on Mother though!!!;) the displayed paintings by passing artists who have also fallen in love with the place, can occupy you for hours...and the standard of ales and ciders is tip-top! For those that are not overly familier with the delights of "Rich's Farmhouse" Cider...treat with respect....where else can one get glowingly merry on a tenner! .....and if you ask nicely; the canny Caroline may allow you the keys to decend to the cellar and witness the perfectly intact 17th Century Ice Well that further installs ones appreciation of just how timelessly perfect this unique place is!!! Thank you Mother, Caroline, Sue, John, Ben for serving me and all my friends and family who are always as equally enthralled, and thank you to every other customer who make up the most eclectic and friendly athmosphere ever to be found in a public house!!! bornNbred - 23 Feb 2012 19:56 |
| Nice locals pub with a lovely view from the back room of Frome. Doom Bar on tap which was nice enough. billybraggscombiboiler - 19 Jul 2011 09:14 |
| An interesting survivor. A 2 roomed pub with a central servery. Apart from a repaint (probably after the smoking ban!) it looks little changed over the years. Old Speckled Hen and Riches Cider on offer. A great locals pub which still makes strangers seem welcome. cheshirecat - 24 Oct 2010 12:16 |
| The best pub in Frome. Packed full of character and indeed characters. All of the traditional pub games are available. The views over the town and surrounding countryside are wonderful. The choice of real ale is limited but one will do! I cannot rate this pub highly enough Newblade - 30 Sep 2010 16:12 |
| Certainly an excellent pub. Well-kept Rich's cider. (But steep curving stairs to toilets likely to be difficult for disabled people). jgurney1 - 12 Apr 2010 18:23 |
