| A juke box, wow. fiftyfive - 2 Feb 2011 09:12 |
| Excellent choice of real ales here. There is a jukebox as well. Passing_By - 11 Jul 2010 07:22 |
| Much extended from the old long thin place I remember from years ago. The front bar has been opened out and is quite a pleasant and comfortable place for a pint or three while persuring the old film posters, although there is continual music from an admittedly impressive jukebox. The back room appears to be largely given over to food and there is a garden out the back. Four pumps with two mainstreams, one going that way and one smaller brewers ware, that is Abbot, Deuchars, Landlord and Palmers, in pretty good condition. Close to the station and thankfully a bit away from the desolate town centre. Mixed bunch of customers ranging from Popley chavs to middle class diners. anonymous - 4 Apr 2009 14:05 |
| i spotted this pub in the good beers guide 2008 and just had to say i think this pub is great, the food is all freshly cooked, so you dont get that microwaved taste on your pallet. also the range of Ales and other Drinks are exceptional for the size of the pub. i have been visiting the pub for years, and it is a remarkable job the landlord has done in order to change it from the tip it was ( the rising Sun) to what it is now(the way Inn). The bar staff are great, as they are well mannered and always seem to have a smile on their face. and it all seems to be well run! The cleanliness of the pub is superb, and the pub always looks great. I would highly recommend this pub to anyone in the area as it is a lovely establishment, that seems to be well run! Just to rectify the previous comments:- -The music has now been put to a lower level and it is easy to hold a convo with it in the background. -The wait for the food is not that long considering that everything is fresh! and Tastes amazing. - And the Bar staff customer service is great, as they seem to lways put the customer 1st at the bar. 10/10 on this pub Thanks.

| I visit this pub for a drink when I'm in Basingrad, I've never eaten there but the food looks acceptable and I'm told it is generally OK. It's not a gastro pub thank god, so the portions look generous. More importantly the beer is fine, I tried TT Landlord last time and it was as one should expect. Yes, there are some young (and occasionally boisterous) customers but as an older customer I have never found it a problem, even tho' on the last evening I visited we were warned that there was a student party coming in. The pub does what a pub should, keeps good beer, has a good atmosphere, serves reasonably priced food and is perfectly acceptable as a local. 8100bob - 2 Nov 2008 13:11 |
