| Gave this pub another try last night, after hearing that they are now stocking real ciders. They do indeed have 3 Millwhites ciders. In addition, 3 real ales were available - Sharps Doom Bar, Vale Best Bitter and Itchen Valley Hampshire Rose. Some of the clientele are a bit questionable. The language is choice. There also seems to be a fair splattering of students from the nearby Brunel University. However, I would definitely now consider coming back. The rating of 4.4/10 is undervaluing it in my opinion. blue_scrumpy - 3 Feb 2010 20:33 |
| I had the great pleasure of providing and engineering my sound & stage lighting rigs for an excellent band, THE GOOD OLD BOYS, at this year's Chinnor Bike Dayz charity festival. They headlined on the Friday night and were superb. They are playing at the Load Of Hay this Saturday 19th December, so please come and check them out for a great evening's entertainment. Real music, real ale, in a real pub. See you there. Cheers, John. JohnnyBGoode - 18 Dec 2009 09:02 |
| My band "STOLEN" played at The Load on Saturday, 12th of December. We brought our following with us and had a great evening. Many thanks to the Brunel Uni students, who took loads of photos and made us feel like rock stars. (well, we at least played like rock stars). I didn't try the ale as I was driving, but our following must have put some away, judging by how happy they were. It's been 10 years since we last played here, but we still managed to get the old atmosphere back, even if just for a few hours. Cheers , John. JohnnyBGoode - 14 Dec 2009 08:05 |
| Pub is not going “slowly downhill”. It died a huge death less than 2 months ago. Grant is an arrogant individual “who knows best”. Fact is, he doesn’t and his ignorance WILL be his downfall. The way in which the staff are treated here is unforgivable. Getting rid of the Carpenter thieves should have been a re-birth. It wasn’t, and he failed miserably here. Personally, I’d love to see this place go to the wall. It (and all that have ever run it) deserve it. Incidentally, this is a pub. Pubs do not employ chefs...They are simply microwave and boil in the bag bods. watching_them_4_you - 28 Jul 2009 23:29 |
| Pub is slowly going downhill, as I've said before,the landlord is employing minimal staff, so they cannot be expected to do all the things required.. Subsequently sticky tables, spent pints left, stressed staff, which does not provide a good ambience when you come to spend your money. Chef has left, and it seems most of the regulars... Grant seems impervious to any constructive criticism.. but there lies the rub... There is no rudder to this ship a great building with great history. Locals who have just given up , having supported this venue because they have genuinely loved the place. Beer that has given you deli belly the morning after, food short of the mark, unclean toilets, unhappy staff.. what more can one say? There are other pubs in the vicinity that are picking up on the loads trade, and will continue to do so until the management and landlord lift their heads out of the sand and really see what is going on and take the criticisms seriously and do something about it!! Without replying to this post saying I have lost the plot.... I am actually speaking the truth if you wish last poster to defend the indefensible? frothonthetop - 20 Jul 2009 01:22 |
