| Decent beer, but the reason I'd go back is the food - really top-class pub food (Steak and Ale Pie, Fish and Chips - that sort of thing) in huge portions at reasonable prices. Ideal for stomach-lining at the start of a crawl! newbury_drinker - 29 Jan 2012 18:21 |
| Nice compact pub which seemed geared up for food. I visited for the festival of dark ales which was unique and must in its self. Every beer tried was in good condition. Could not find a festival beer menu though, (not that my daughter and I are beer tickers of course) !! trekman - 3 Jun 2011 11:06 |
| I had high hopes for this place but to be honest the beer selection on offer was somewhat unimaginitve and the JHB I had was fairly unpalatable. cobbo - 4 Oct 2010 16:33 |
| Smallish white-washed reasonably traditional pub in a quietish area of the city reasonably close to the cathedral. The pub is a GBG regular and, so I'm told, one of the best known Norwich pubs. Food appeared to play a major part when I visited, but there were 6 real ales on - London Pride, Adnams, Deuchars IPA, Mauldens, Woodforde Nog and Oakham Ales JHB. It's quite compact inside and probably usually gets busy quickly, but there's a spacious outside drinking area on the square outside to help relieve any crush. Not a must visit pub, but I'd probably return JohnBonser - 9 Apr 2009 13:34 |
| The beer was fantastic, with good variety, the atmosphere was excellent, and the food was absolutely top notch. Not cheap, but good quality and excellent value. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially the 'waitress' with the dyed red hair. Will definitely return next year, assuming no unexpected promotion/ relegation. Dylanwing - 13 Feb 2009 20:14 |
