| I really enjoy the atmosphere in this pub - genuine set of friendly, harmless locals who are all exceptionally welcoming. However, I must concur with the previous posts regarding food - I am aware after speaking to the Manager there, they have changed the chef recently but are aware of the problems and are trying to rectify them. Not a great help when the improvements hadn't taken place by the time our food arrived! But, they were apologetic and understanding. Also, definitely concur with the comments about Sundays being overrun with screaming uncontrolled intolerable babies, children and the like. If you must bring them to a pub, keep them quiet and out of the way, otherwise employ a babysitter! N16 - 27 May 2010 21:51 |
| the last comment (Niikko, 12 Apr) is clearly a plant aimed at restoring the balance from the two comments before that one. If he knows his stuff why is he serving crap? Never heard Rev James described as excellent, even by tastebudless major brewer drinkers. That's perhaps the biggest give away. Try again. Dimple_mug - 4 May 2010 14:42 |
| My favourite pub of the moment. Great beer and atmosphere. Landlord knows his beers. Reverend James is excellent. Well worth a visit. Great place to have Sunday lunch, always welcoming. Niikko - 12 Apr 2010 11:44 |
| Was in last night and also served a short measure on a pint. Also had food, which wasn't brilliant, I think they may have changed the chef recently as the quality has slipped. Also dishes came not as described. Food used to be exceptional at the pub, now descending into just ok. Like the guest bitters though and the atmosphere of the pub is generally good imp123 - 9 Apr 2010 11:22 |
| Awful experience here the other night. The interior isn't bad and the beer range wasn't too disappointing - Duechars IPA, Reverend James, Pedigree, and a Hyde's. But then it all went wrong. A pint glass containing two-thirds of a pint of Reverend James was placed on the bar. Literally the shortest measure I've ever seen, the top inch wasn't even head, it had already settled to this low level. I do believe the barmaid was not going to top up. I asked "is this a pint to brim glass or is it lined?"...she didn't have a clue what I had just said so I repeated myself and eventually got her to reluctantly top it up. She returned with a stern "what is your question". I explained it to her a bit better..."oh". The beer turned out to be unpalatable. My friend's Deuchars wasn't any better. I struggled through a quarter of it, asked my friends to drink up so we could leave the place sharpish. Oh yeah, and this unpalatable beer cost £3.40. In light of all this, some comments up here seem bizarre. Sure Parky.P has the right place?! Dimple_mug - 3 Apr 2010 12:03 |
