| Pleasant looking pub from the outside with a modernish refrubed bar that had a sunken feel to it (against the main road outside I supose). Candles on tables gives the impression it may serve food but none in evidence at this time. There were three ales on - Tribute, Brakspears and Vale's Brill Steam. Tried the Brill Steam whcih wasn't what I would describe as 'brill'. It had a kind of metallic, home brew taste. A little less day tripper tourist though that is because it is a short stroll from the centre. Snarling_Mallard - 29 May 2011 10:47 |
| Ok hold the press the tinners has gone as st austell ales have realised finally that its a comparatively crap beer. the landlord has done a canny swop for tribute with the brewery. so better permanent ale choice now (2 of 3). the newish £5 menu is fine, not if your starving, best choice for span is ham, egg and chips, but dont expect that lovely chunky ham its more the packet ham version. Fabulous waterside garden for the summer and food overall is good parmantom - 13 Apr 2011 15:17 |
| Having gone back again as promised I have to say I had a fantastic time! I was there for hours with friends. The staff were friendly and welcoming as were all of the regulars. The Guinness was miles better and all in all I honestly could not fault the place, just wish it stayed open later! 9/10! mikeyr1234 - 7 Apr 2011 22:40 |
| I came in here with a friend for the first time a few days ago. He lives in the area and I was visiting. I had a pint of Guinness (£3.35) which I have to say was not very good. It was clearly going off/nearing the end of the barrel and had that tinny/metallic smell you get. That said it was daytime and as such i'm sure when the lines are pulled through more during the evening it would improve. Going back again soon so will update. Regarding the interior, I quite liked it - a mixture of old and new with candles on tables. mikeyr1234 - 1 Apr 2011 00:20 |
| I return to this pub frequently as it is quite easy to exist in and all the other pubs around are just that side of either oily and semi-depressing or overly pine-wooded you need shiny sunglasses. The new £5 a dish hot menu is quite good, basically smaller cooked meals from the normal menu, presented nicely (not over the top...). The great shame as from my lat last year pub post is the beer selection is still poor, still Vales Best bitter (3.7) and St. Austell's Tinner's (3.7) on permanent - neither of which lets be honest anyone would say "oh great lets stay here and come back again!" the jewel can be the revolving guest ale but this isnt always revolved quickly enough to be present. Beer is kept well mind and its a jolly place overall just lacking a bit of heart and a really good permanent ale. parmantom - 24 Feb 2011 16:16 |
