| Average suburban two-roomer, beer (Youngs) good enough but the loud Greene King pub over the road had most of the young custom. mtaylor40 - 11 Jun 2011 17:25 |
| 2 bars, 'saloon' bar had a real fire and was quite cosy but dead, other bar was a bit more busy full of locals. Wasn't oozing friendliness, had 3 beers on but only 2 in the public bar so missed the probably superior Alton FFF beer, my Deuchars IPS was OK but nothing special, the other real ale was Courage I think. Part of the local CAMRA real ale trail, went there to meet the local branch but no one turned up! Abteilung - 27 Feb 2010 17:39 |
| A great little pub. One of the best I have been in. delpus - 14 Jan 2010 21:52 |
| Only ever been in the Public bar (although don't think it is labelled as such). Decent honest boozer - what you see is what you get. Beer has always been in good nick - sound rather than spectacular. Wish there were more pubs like this - a place to drink in unpretentious (but clean) surroundings. dromdick - 22 Nov 2009 10:23 |
| Enjoyable old-skool boozer, split into plush lounge and a spartan public bar. As commented below, the public bar is dominated by the pool table and is home to satellite sports and darts. The lounge is a quieter cosier affair, mainly housing the older clientèle. Two ales on, Courage Best and Deuchars IPA - the Deuchars is usually a pretty good bet here for the quality. Whilst not necessarily being a pub to go out of the way for, it's well-worth a stop if you're nearby or down the hill in Caversham and near the bus stop. Quinno - 21 Jan 2009 21:11 |
