| Internet... DVD... Unified Germany.. GM crops... All things that have happened since i last visited this pub 25 years ago.. And to be fair the pub has had a change of wallpaper.. some newer brighter lighting.. and a smoke free atmosphere since my last visit... On informing my drinking partners daughter we were going to the Marshals we were informed it is an old persons pub... It is an old persons pub... serving good honest well kept beers and with an atmosphere that only a pub comfortable with its own identity has.. Fancy some fizzy pish... then you will find ...errr...chain pubs near by ... want a pub where you can hold a conversation ,enjoy a beer in a convivial atmosphere you'd do a lot worse than having a bash at the Marshals..

| An old fashioned local's local. A hubbub of chatter greets you on entering. slerpy - 10 Jul 2008 19:58 |
| Fab old style atmosphere- that bursts with energy every Sunday when they have 'live music', anything from Blues,Jazz,Funk,Soul& more. Alway's part of the local all year round gig guide & summer jazz fest as well as being in the 'good beer guide'. And now open til midnight near weekend night's. Yes it's true - they fined you if your mobile phone rings BUT they raise a few hundred pounds EVERY couple of months for local charity's which is fantastic. No one really minds it's for charity mate. rats - 12 Mar 2006 20:34 |
| Marshals is the only pub in central Barnstaple in the 'Good Beer Guide' - yet it seems to be quite a 'locals' pub. There are fines (for charity) for using a mobile phone so remember to turn yours off (or at least keep it silent) before going in. When I visited, there appeared to be 3 beers on handpump - but only 2 pumps (one handpump had 2 clips). Possibly one of these was gravity dispense? Bass seems the regular beer, although I tried one from Archers (Archers seem to brew so many different beers that I've given up trying to remember the names of them) which was very pleasant. They do lunchtime meals if you're in Barnstaple shopping, so it's a worthwhile stop for a rest, a beer and a bite. Trequites - 27 Jan 2006 13:21 |
