This place is ok, but it’s never going to win any awards. It’s a good size pub with plenty of outside seating, but the bar isn’t that long so I could imagine a bit of a wait on a sunny day.

I think that I counted five Young’s Ordinary pumps, one Bombardier and three unused. Peroni, Kronenburg, Fosters, Carlsberg, Guinness and Dry Blackthorn Cider were also available. The food seemed like standard pub grub and it was reasonably priced.

The staff were nice enough, my Bombardier was good and there is a dartboard, but I’m still not sure that I’d stick my head in if passing again.

Youngs err, Wells pretty much ruined the asmosphere of the place with its last makeover. JohnBonser hit the nail on the head with his observation of 'sanitized'. However I've found this to be a nice welcoming daytime pub. The food is good and reasonably priced, the Youngs and Bombadier are always well kept. The staff are friendly and efficient. Its a good "lunch & 2 pints" kind of place. For the black lung brigade they've created a pair of heated and sheltered spaces on the front patio.

No good
Agree with previous reviews when debbie and her husband ran this (before the current owners) this place was packed. Always used to pop in as our office was nearby and the beer and service was always A1
NOW its gone totally downhill and is a great shame have looked at other reviews on pubs in this area and a few punters are saying the same about this place
to sum up used to be good, as they say all good things come to an end eh?
The prince william henry has indeed
SHAME !!!

Been here a couple of times, not local to the area but work occasionaly requires us to visit an office near here. First time we went one Thursday night and the place was deserted, which we thought was odd so moved on. The next couple of times though were better although it never gets busy. They have a dart board and a quiz machine, which was enough to keep us entertained. Staff are generally good, particulalrly the young Colombian lass. Beer selection is not great but you can generally find some where to sit, unfortunately there is no real atmosphere although I have not been in here on a weekend.
