| This place has really hit rock bottom, the door men have atitude and the place is so dirty, for the amount of trade it has surley the managment could aford to clean occasionly. Guiness now £3.50 per pint (rip off) Nelson.74 - 22 Jun 2008 00:14 |

| I love this place - I think its where they film the 'Phone-4-U' TV ads! The 'locals' can be 'interesting' to say the least. Draught beer is a little mixed - best to stick to bottled. Music is great and atmosphere is warm, sticky and welcoming. Usually end up here having been for a few light ales in Reading; it's a nice way to see the night out. Has the distinction of being just down the road from possibly the WORST curry house in the world (but that's another discussion altogether) revbrianlovecraftscott - 20 Nov 2007 16:22 |
| Certainly has gone downhill recently, not helped by Hugh(apparantly a manager) who is a rude, jumped up twat. I am a regular there and have been for years but the calibre of staff leaves a lot to be desired! Used to be a friendly, fun place to go but now all the staff are surly and grumpy and they shut off the juke box on Friday evenings so you have to listen to towny crap! tequilababe - 25 Jun 2007 15:33 |
