| This wonderful pub is being ruined. It comes to something when one forsakes long standing company due to the management. Other pubs are seeing me...unheard of a year ago! Things will improve if changes are ever made. Study the implied timeline from previous comments and you can see the 'boundary.' Unfortunately, this was a wonderful, thriving community pub that may not survive if drastic action is not taken before the brewery accountants spot the disastrous bottom line. I am quite bitter (no pun intended) about the direction my local has taken. cabbyman - 2 Jul 2009 23:46 |
| This used to be a very nice pub to visit but since the previous landlady left last year standards have fallen rapidly. Staff change on almost a weekly basis. It can, on ocassions, take up to half an hour to be served (even for regulars). Once it gets to 10pm Staff are more interested in bottling up & removing drip trays than serving. Do not leave your beer unattended on the bar whilst you go for a cigarette, as it is likely to be removed & disposed of, as I have seen on several ocassions. Once last orders have been called, you can forget about ordering a drink as staff deliberately ignore you. There used to be great entertainment on a regular basis, now its once in a blue moon. The quiz has gone downhill rapidly with prizes being cut & the standard of quizzes being hit & miss. It is clear on most sundays that the quiz answers are not checked for accuracy as many of the questions have completely wrong answers. There used to be a very varied amount of regulars that would write & read the quiz, however the new landlady seems to be freezing them out. The staff are definately unfriendly & miserable.

| this used to be a lovely little pub. New manager taken over and she is very very rude and is quickly running the place into the ground. Wouldn't bother going again, standards are poor, food is awful - when they bother to open the kitchen, staff are rude and manager doesn't appear to care - dont bother! womble77 - 6 Apr 2009 11:16 |
| Visited over xmas. How this pub got into the good pub guide, albeit the lucky dip section, is beyond me. Poor quality real ale served by miserable unfriendly staff. Happy xmas! costello - 6 Jan 2009 19:49 |
