| Decidedly upmarket both in decor and customers, but it has to have the snootiest barmen (and they do seem to be all men) in Lancaster wearing silly waistcoats and bow ties and looking down their noses at the customers. The beer is excellent quality but well over £3 a pint and to make it worse it's served as short measure and plonked down on the bar in front of you by said barstaff with a "just you dare to complain and see what happens" look of their faces. Without the bar staff (and short measure) I'd give it 9 out of 10. dorothygoodbody - 5 Dec 2011 23:09 |
| Nice upmarket place with a good selection of ales - very pleasant surroundings and prices to match (£3.20 for a pint of 3.7 ABV ale in good condition) which seems to maintain a good class of customers. Stamfordian - 7 Oct 2011 12:09 |
| This is a really top quality place right in the centre of Lancaster. There were 5 guest ales a superb beer garden and it also served what looked like top quality food !! If you are ever in Lancaster this must be on your list to visit. Its not really a boozer as such with posh leather chairs and setee's etc, but the beer is well kept and it has a great atmosphere, especially at the back where the food is served.

| Grand city centre pub conversion on the city's pleasant main square, the classical sandstone exterior of which (see above) gives an impression of what lies within. As noted, it's stately home- like, with grand chandeliers, a staircase and old pictures on the walls. The one large area is partially separated into more intiamte-feeling parts, although the rear of the pub is given over to diners. Some of the walls are oak-panelled, and whilst the majority of the furnishings are traditional, there are also some comfy old leather seats to relax in. The beer selection is strong, with local breweries such as Bowland, Thwaites, Lancaster and Hawskshead represented on my visit. Hawkshead Bitter was its usual excellent pint. Busy on a Saturday night, with a mixed crowd making for a pleasant atmosphere. Definitely a must-visit if in Lancaster. Carlurmston - 28 Aug 2010 10:35 |
| Excellent ale house by the town hall & Queen Victoria statue. Stately home-like interior with some big chandeliers which I would not like to stand under. About 6 ales on from different microbreweries. Top notch pub. Booze_Allen - 24 Apr 2010 12:42 |
