Very good beer, good food and open all day. No issues with service as there seems to have been in the past from old reviews. Will come back for a brewery tour on a Saturday.

From one or two of the comments on here, we visited with a degree of trepidation. However, I can report that the Old Cannon is as good as ever. We wanted to stay the weekend, but they only had rooms on Friday and all were booked out on Saturday (many places try to prevent this, and it needs some attanetin, please). However, the beer was very good (the Best Bitter less so but mine was one of the last pints out) with the Gunners Daughter outstanding. The food was also of a very high standard, and the service absolutely superb and friendly from all the staff. It's something we noticed in Bury, how friendly and efficient the staff in pubs are, much more so than most other towns. One waiter came over to check that the Gunners Daughter was OK, as we had to wait for the cask to be changed.

Lovely old brewery buildings and yard, tried all 4 of their brews, all good, the brewery is in the bar, food looked ok too. Well worth a visit when in Bury St Edmunds.

One of the best real ale pubs in Bury St Edmunds. Definitely worth a visit.

The pint of Rusty Gun I had tasted like it was brewed in a rusty bucket ! They were only serving OCB ales + Adnams today so if the policy is now not to sell guest ales (apart from Adnams) I will not be down there very often.

The ales used to have character and were works of art but now they all taste metallic and the quality has dipped significantly (I suppose we should expect that with a name like the Old Cannon)
