| Nice, small pub in this commercial suburb of Bournemouth. But this is a Marstons pub. So the range is limited to their own beers and breweries they have swallowed up. The selection was Ringwood Best, Forty Niner & Boon Doggle, Banks's Bitter & Marstons Old Empire. There is a nice atmosphere in here, with no music, TVs, fruit machines or any other distractions - just simple conversation. blue_scrumpy - 8 Jun 2015 20:14 |
| Have to say that our Ringwood best was fine and the pub OK - not much else in the area so you "pays your money and you takes your choice" as they say!! mcroyal - 12 Apr 2014 12:49 |
| Average beer at overinflated prices and the whole pub smelt of piss. Sadly, not going back in a hurry. SerendipitySue - 4 Nov 2013 20:09 |
| Another visit recently.. you can't fault the atmosphere in this place, though for a Saturday night it was quite empty. Sadly, the beer quality is worse than ever with Old Thumper down from 5.6% to 5.1% and tasting terrible. I don't believe this is the fault of the staff at the pub - you can't keep a beer badly to make it taste like that. Ringwood beer is simply bad, cheaply made beer these days. I noticed the rather cynical new pump clips trying to promote the brewery as a craft-brewer. Poppycock! Mark888 - 19 Oct 2013 19:20 |
