| The management seem to have given up on this place. They don't bother putting the sound on when there is footy on the TV, happy simply to pump out music so loud you can't hear yourself think - hello this place is supposed to be a friendly local boozer not a night club! Often no real ale on either. This place has really gone downhill over the last three months. BothamsAshes - 27 Apr 2008 20:17 |
| I've been drinking here for 7 or 8 years and quite simply it's just a good down to earth, unpretentious pub (which is so rare in these trendy parts) with a mix of locals, office workers, students and people from the sports centre opposite and in all my years of drinking there I've never heard a cross word from a customer or not been afforded a great welcome by the londlord and landlady. For the real ale crowd there's usually IPA and Adnams on and for those who need it there's pool tables, big screen, jukebox etc. Sadly no food except bar snacks, which is the only thing which lets this pub down, although they will gladly order a pizza to be delivered to you if you wish! monkeymum - 6 Jul 2007 14:48 |
| Adnams and IPA now almost always on which is a big improvement on the beer side compared with a couple of years ago. The pub remains well run, great management, friendly efficient staff and with a good atmosphere. BothamsAshes - 21 Jun 2007 23:14 |
| Good chat with the landlord yesterday afternoon, top bloke. Restricted choice of bitter but the Adnams was in good nick and I think they had GK on too. Nice pint and good hospitality, I'll be back. trainman - 30 Nov 2006 12:49 |
| Good pub. Good atmosphere. Good landlord and landlady. Good bar staff. Very Friendly. For those looking for non lager drinks, it was selling Greene King IPA when I was in there last night. Has Satellite TV and a pool table for those needing such facilities. kevins1966 - 17 Mar 2006 11:06 |
