| As a regular visitor to this pub i know for a fact it has nothing to do with Punch. I have also been told the reason it is not listed in the Good Beer Guide is due to the fact the local Camra guy is not allowed to bring his dog in.....how petty is that?? I'm thinking the previous poster is that same person. I find it strange that The Good Pub Guide list this pub as the only highly recommended pub in Weymouth and GBG have no mention whatsoever but they do list every Wetherspoons in the country. You wouldn't have to dig too deep to see where their priorities lie........... scotty2007 - 29 Mar 2013 13:54 |
| Just to correct Scotty2007, this is NOT a Free House despite the claim Free Trade (what on earth does that mean anyway) on the pub sign. Before the refurb it used to claim to be a Free House. It is actually one of five pubs run by a small pub company based in Cheshire called Cheshire cat Pubs & Bars Ltd. They don't even own the pub but lease it from the giant pub chain Punch. However this pub has always been economical with the truth - it claimed to be Weymouth's favourite pub back in 2009 before it was even re-opened. Fullpintsplease - 7 Mar 2013 13:17 |
| just spent the weekend in weymouth for the seafood festival and the saturday was cancelled due to the monsoon. so instead i spent an excellent afternoon in this transformed pub. what a difference the refurbishment has given it....its so cool i could have been in london or manchester. it was packed with rain soaked visitors but everyone seemed more upbeat with the comfort and selection of beers and spirits on offer...the food was excellent too. just brilliant!! Slerpy i reckon you drank too much beer in the other pubs which gave you double vision....its not a managed house as the free trade sign outside would indicate. scotty2007 - 12 Jul 2012 19:10 |
| Exceptionally POOR Manager and partner, they have no manners or service skills whatsoever.I hope their Area Manager reads this and takes action. I will contact the Pubco involved seeking an explanation. Are they secretly filmimg something akin to Fawlty Towers here??? Still a big fat Zero. The visitor centre opposite is closed and trade is poor, the little trade they might get is destroyed by the aforementioned morons, most strange indeed. slerpy - 7 Jul 2012 21:59 |
| The bar staff were rude and unwelcoming, the food and drinks were foul and apparently watered down greatly and some of the comments made to me and my friends about my age and sexuality were frankly disgusting. These comments were made by the MANAGER! I was told he didn't want any of "My kind" in his pub. I am disgusted and will never even think again about this pub, even if I was dying Of thirst/hunger.
