Very expensive food, lack of atmosphere, irritating piped music, and often uninspired choice of beer. I can't really comment on the beer quality, as i don't often stay for a pint, just meet a mate and go across the road to the Flyer.

Good visit yesterday. Pleasant barman and woman. Betty Stoggs from Skinners was the pick-the range was good,Adnams Broadside and Black Sheep Bitter were the best of the rest. Trade was good for Sunday lunch. Yes,an improvement on my previous visit.

They had eight cask ales on sale when I visited. Didn't try them all, but the ones I did try were all just fine.
Nicely done out with dining area to one side, drinking area to the other. There seemed to be some sort of work on decking for the garden out the back, which would be nice.
Good selection of reading material Independent and guardian for the customers, sun and star for the bar maid.
Food was very good indeed and not at all expensive (£10 for 2 course lunch).
Music was a bit naff but otherwise well worth a visit

Good range of beer and VERY expensive food. So drink, don't eat.

Been here a few times,ale was always good,however the "BREWERY OF THE WEEK" concept would put me off a bit-what if you're not a fan of that weeks particular brewery? Was there a few months ago and it was Bath Ales-nothing wrong with Bath Ales at all,but when you have 4 Bath Ales pubs in town and Bath Gem is becoming a more common beer than the ubiquitous Courage Best,well what was the point.

Ate here once and grub was good,though a bit expensive and over glorified. Also in the winter the breeze gusts in the door so at counter boozing can leave u with a chilly ass!!!!!
