Drank here many times now, never had a below average or bad pint. The beer has always been superb, I like really dark or light beer great range of beers from all over and many from Byatt's Brewery Coventry. Only bad point is that the gents floor is often wet so check your laces before you enter.

Interesting historical pub in a road where there were some dodgy looking ones. Good selection of real ales and the ones I had were in good condition. Guy behind the bar friendly and obliging. Would visit again next time in the city.

Pub built into very old houses. 6 real ales on, the Worcester Sorcerer was excellent.

Some of the previous reviews about poor beer quality caused me some concerns but I'm pleased to report that last night both the Everards Sunchaser and Holts Mild were fine.
There was a singer performing last night which produced a pleasant atmosphere and although the pub is close to the university there were plenty of customers who clearly weren't students.
I think this ancient pub might well be the oldest building in which I have drunk a pint or two.

Recent visit proffered 0 drinkable beers out of a good 6 that we saw at some stage in the night.
First few were vinegary, the ones that replaced those returned beers were not ready yet.
Real shame.
