| damned expensive for not good quality beers. varg - 3 Jul 2008 15:52 |
| This VERY nearly became "executive apartments" when Eldridge Pope sold up a few years ago. Saved (thankfully), it is one of the better pubs on the Shaftebury hill-top. Having said this, it is also a tourist magnet (as it's next to Gold Hill, the hill from the Hovis ads). This means that the service is not always all that it could be. A very good selection of beers here, with food that is often good, sometimes indifferent. Personally speaking, it's best in mid-winter, when there is no tourist trade. In summer, it has stunning views, even if the service suffers. HenPen - 28 May 2008 22:49 |
| Yesterday I visited the Mitre Pub in Shaftesbury where I ordered a bowl of soup. Unfortunaely it had meat in it when it arrived (Minestrone) and I politely said I did not eat meat and could they replace it with a cheese sandwich or a portion of chips. There policy was "no". No apology and it was tough luck on my part. I think this is an appalling way to treat customers. How much does a bowl of soup cost? They charged me £4.50. I will tell everyone in future not to visit the Pub. lauralee - 25 Mar 2008 22:16 |
| probably best ale in shaftesbury, but that's not too hard to achieve, when most of the rest are Hall & Woodhouse establishments. alehouses - 2 Jan 2008 15:10 |
