| Worth the walk up the hill from the town centre. The pub looks majestic in its location and boasts a commanding view over the A25 and the back of the station - mmmm. However, inside, the pub is light and spacious and I was made to feel welcome by the barman. I had a jacket potato for lunch which was tasty although a little crisp in places. The pickle served with it was superb though. I've been wary of Young's beers since the merger with Wells, but I tried the Winter Warmer and it was very tasty and I had another - good job I wasn't driving. I'm not in Redhill very often but I would go there again. GrahamA - 21 Feb 2008 13:21 |
| Great pub; not just for regulars. Prices are above average, but that keeps out the chavs, bravado drinkers, and alcoholics very nicely. Current staff is very good (staff can make or break any pub) and friendly, and make one feel welcome. The idiosyncratic regulars provide the finishing touch of that 'local watering hole' feel. Facilities are good, although parts of the old pub are suffering a bit from fatigue... But that may well add to its charm. dfitzwilliam - 24 Dec 2007 11:48 |
| Handy for Redhill station - a reasonably traditional, perfectly adequate local. Neither the Youngs Special or the Ordinary were much to write home about though on my visit last Saturday lunchtime - both rather insipid and lacking in any discernible taste. Perhaps I should have tried the Charles Wells Summer Solstice ? Youngs have now owned this pub since 1977 and it is nice to see that the redoubtable matriach Sybil Starr who owned the pub before selling out to Youngs is still remembered in pictures on the pub walls. ( I'm probably one of the few who remember this pub before it was a Youngs pub ) There's also a nice grandfather clock and fireplace which always pleases old school traditionalists like me. There's a room at the back of the pub used for monthly comedy nights now- which I don't remember from last time In summary, this pub has a certain feel good factor to it, in marked contrast to pubs the other side of the station, but I do hope the beer is better when I next visit JohnBonser - 19 Jun 2007 13:13 |
| Perfectly reasonable local, and certainly a much better bet than most of the pubs on the town-centre side of Redhill railway station. Well kept Youngs and Charles Wells beers. rpadam - 18 Jun 2007 18:54 |
| A longtime favourite of mine - for some reason it had been ages since I looked in. Chose a bad time to revisit - after work on the evening before the Easter holiday, and a warm afternoon to boot. The place was heaving: it was almost impossible to get to the bar, and when you did it took an age to get served. But that was my fault, for bad timing. I'm still very fond of this place; I like the wide mix of people you always seem to get here, and I've never had a bad pint in 20 years. I don't know what the food's like these days - they used to do a mean burger and chips in the days when Eugene (later of the Buckingham Arms) was in charge. I shall certainly be back. earlydrinker - 13 Apr 2007 22:20 |
