| This pub has now closed and is up for sale. I would have thought that there should be some trade to be had in this part of town - especially if you did a few real ales and appealed a bit to the student trade from the nearby Uni. There are also quite a few chimney pots around and shops opposite with plenty of buses stopping almost outside. However I suppose the owners just want shot of it to help balance their books. mcroyal - 21 Nov 2012 13:00 |
| Rumour has it that this is now doing "gentlemen's entertainment" - does anybody know??? mcroyal - 1 Sep 2011 22:55 |
| A turd of a pub. Avoid like the plague if you want to know the truth. fender100 - 12 Nov 2010 11:27 |
| Yes dinky, I have noticed the great improvement in the Wellington. Well done! Beer quality is excellent and its now a friendly pub with a good atmosphere. The last comment was over 18 months ago - well before your time! Good luck. brewmason - 22 Aug 2009 12:11 |
| As the Landlady of this pub I�m obviously going to have a more biased attitude with my comments regarding this pub. I have only been here for 5 months and in that time I have moved on the �undesirables� and now have a lovely group of regular friendly drinkers of all ages. I have also introduced more real ales and take a lot of time and pride to ensure they are always or the best quality although I only have two hand pumps I work them on a rotation and have a variety of beers and the moment I am selling London Pride, Bombardier and Courage Best (kegged) next to come on will be Deuchers IPA. It�s a community based pub and everyone knows each other and there is no bother here just fun times and good laughs. I regularly hold family days with a bouncy castle and free bbq (weather permitting). And have recently spilt a lot of blood sweat and tears on making sure the garden is just right. So please regardless of what previous comments have been made about this pub I ensure you I work hard and my efforts are reflected in the way the pub now runs. So please come in it well worth popping in for even if it�s just to meet the soppy pub dogs Tinker and Albert, but you will stay for the welcoming atmosphere and the good quality of beer. dinkytinky - 22 Aug 2009 11:28 |
