Definitely did not feel welcome when I went in there - but that was last summer and I understand that things have improved. I will drop in sometime soon and feedback. As a CAMRA pub I would like to see this one do well, but there are plenty of other places in the area with potential.

A strange place. With the selection of ales it offers and free pop to the children it really warrants 9/10. But then it's in one of the rougher parts of town, needs a good cleaning & a lick of paint, has a beer "yard" rather than "garden" and (I'm sorry to say) is painfully obviously a "local pub for local people". In all fairness, 6/10 is the best I can stretch to. Which is a shame.

I hadn't visited the pub for some time, so I went along at 10pm on a Friday and it was closed. I hope that this doesn't mean the end of what has been a fine pub.

I usually pop into this place a couple of times a week although I wouldn't say it's my local. This pub now has a new landlord and I notice the regulars are drifting back in after being barred by the previous landlord for smoking too much. Beer and service seem ok at the moment, time will tell if the place improves.

Sought this out as a CAMRA member. Had the temerity to enter with my six-year-old son, intending to go through to the garden. I would have got a friendlier welcome if I'd entered with Osama Bin Laden on one arm and the Iranian president on the other. I was curtly informed that my boy wasn't allowed, and when I politely enquired "not even in the garden?" the woman behind the bar snapped "Only if you're eating". So I scuttled out while the locals stared at me with mildly amused disdain.
The beer might well be fabulous, unfortunately I didn't get a chance to try it.
