| A good old fashioned pub. Just how all pubs should be. oo3971 - 4 Jul 2008 11:12 |
| A quite spacious L shaped pub that you will never find by accident! With new buildings springing up in this area at alarming rates, the Steam ship is a throw back to old Victorian alleyways and backstreets and seems at odds with some of the surroundings. The interior, however, lacks any real character or warmth; everything seems very square and plain. The décor is quite old fashioned with dated wallpaper, bare floors and old paneling with a mix of hard and soft furnishings. A set of small canal themed watercolours of the sort that tend to populate car boot sales adorn the rear walls. The front bar is quite narrow but has a pool table at one end whilst to the rear the pub opens up with part used for dining. At the very back is a walled outdoor patio area. The bar can get a bit congested as this seems to be where the masses gather although this usually consists of a leaving do or post work drink up. The remainder of the pub has always been empty on my 3 or 4 visits. Decent quality beers (Green King IPA / Wadworth 6X / London Pride) but don’t expect all (or sometimes any) to be available. The 2 Plasma screens generally show Sky News or Sports, usually drowned by the jukebox. It is a decent enough place but it would be interesting to see how the place fared if there was some decent local competition. RogerB - 15 Feb 2008 15:02 |
| This pub was a gem of a find. First found it in 2000 whilst working here, at the time a great woman Teresa had it but unfortunately she sold up in Feb 2006 and moved to Ireland permanently but the other girl that has it Michelle, has done an excellent job. Top marks! weekendselekshun - 20 Sep 2007 22:44 |
| Mooncrief - I remember the singer and thought he was top notch too. I used to go in this bar in the late 70s early 80s and we always got a late drink. It must have been one of the first to do a late one in those days. It used to get rammed and we all drunk so much I wouldn't know if the beer was good or not but it worked. A great pulling place for us and we were there almost every weekend. I think it was called locally something like Lauro's Steamship. We will go back in the next few weeks and report back payback - 22 Jul 2007 18:17 |
