| I try quite hard to like the Woolpack as it is fairly convenient for me but it just doesn't really have much charm. There are elements there which are good: The real ale is well kept and they do a fair selection. They have Czech Budvar on tap, which is normally a good sign. It has preseved its pleasant Victorian corner pub layout and decor. It has a pool table and a small garden. These good elements draw me back on a regular basis, but what drives me away again is the unpleasant, dead atmosphere. It just lacks any kind of hospitality, it is generally pretty empty and most of the customers seem to be boring, surly, young, single blokes who treat the place as if it belongs to them and feel that anyone else who might fancy popping in for a drink is trespassing on their turf. The bar staff seem to encourage this attitude, presumably because it means they have less work to do as no-one else comes in. In the right hands it could be so much more. 5/10 Jay28 - 4 Jun 2008 14:58 |
| Not a bad pint, but I found the staff and management are not particularly warm and welcoming. Jay28 - 26 Mar 2008 17:35 |
| Friendly pub with good selection of beers on tap. Not too noisy or busy, ideal for a quiet pint or two and a chat. knottyathome - 15 Jan 2008 08:43 |
