| I agree about the slightly off beer ... the one I had while an unusual ale was not at its best. A straightforward pub though with its 'unique' decor and not too far from the river. rainlight - 28 Aug 2008 20:36 |
| It's an interesting and different pub but watch out. I had a pint that was slightly cloudy and just past its best so I took it back. The barman referred me to the other guy behind the bar who I suppose was in charge. He asked me "did you order it?". "Yes" I said. "Well then you can't complain". I thought this kind of attitude had disappeared long ago. I told the guy upstairs in the restaurant and he went and got me another, but of course it was the same cloudy appley beer. On the night we went the restaurant was doing 50% off the food. But they charged the 12.5% service charge on the full price of the meal, i.e. a service charge of 25%. Shame because the service was good. And so was the live music. ilikegoodpubs - 28 Aug 2008 19:53 |
| I rather like this pub. It’s very small, consisting of a single room with only five tables. Parquet wood floor, miscellaneous old photographs and assorted bric-a-brac around the walls made this seem a very welcoming pub. In some ways the unpretentiousness of this pub reminded me of the Wenlock – which is a compliment. Four or five real ales on including three Downton Brewery ales. I had the Slater’s Top Totty which was excellent. Pub grub was fairly straightforward – the cheese baguette I had was OK. This pub really is an oasis in an otherwise uninspiring area. Highly recommended. RexRattus - 5 Aug 2008 17:09 |
| Good pub, but past its prime. Interesting clientele - watch out for the 'artist in residence' - and décor. Just don't go there too often as it can get a bit samey. However, the beer has been managed much better recently (a strong range these days) and there has been some good live music on weekends. Worth a visit, though, for its classic feel. apinchofsalt - 25 May 2008 23:41 |
| Beer was in good condition on my recent visit. My pint of Itchen Valley bitter tasted fine. Now more food orientated than previously, but still worth visiting if in the area. There's now a restaurant upstairs This place is not cheap, but then again where is around these parts ? JohnBonser - 28 Mar 2008 14:25 |
