| I would agree about the loss of the "high bar" which I remember from days long ago (I think this was a Ward's of Sheffield brewery pub?) It has a small drinking area at the front and then you go up to the main bar and the long thin lounge area at the back. Local trade/shoppers and handy for the bus and train stations. Good Glentworth ale at £1.95 a pint. Pleasant enough but has lost one unusual feature that set it apart from other pubs. mcroyal - 15 Mar 2012 13:15 |
| I visited this pub as it looked inviting and used to sport the 'highest bar in the UK' - what a dissapointment. The pub is quite basic inside, and certainly nothing special, whilst the points which should make it 'different' have been ruined. The front area should be a clutch of benches surrounding a great open fire, but this remained bricked up and cold. As for the 'high bar', well I presume 'improvements' over recent years have built in front of this and now it stands at a normal height. The only plus point was the locally brewed Glentworth Ale on draught, but it really should try harder if it wants to compete with others in the town centre of Doncaster.

| Haven't been in for 4 months but the beer was great. According to Donny Drinker Timothy Taylor's Landlord Ale is permanent and they have six rotating guest ales. Well worth a visit. postiebob - 6 Mar 2006 14:19 |
