Rough diamond sort of a place, great to see 3 real ales on tap, tried all three and i was impressed.

Landlord has his heart in the right place and is doing a good job in difficult circumstances. This pub needs our support and i would urge anyone with a love of real ale and pubs in general to give it a go!

The pup company have talked about knocking down this 150yr old pub and building flats. we cannot let this happen, so come on, suppoet your local

Landlord is planning a beer festival over the easter wekkend, with pints costing just £2. what more could you ask for?

Come on, give it a try

It's open again! Bit strange walking back in there this evening but a lot of features there from before. Very surprised indeed, I never thought I'd see this house open again.

Seemingly shut (no sign of life at any time on Saturday), and looking like the sort of pub I love too !

As for the last comment about closing during the day.........it is now closed 24/7. The Soldiers is no more, I have it confirmed by two people I know that it closed down around two weeks ago. The end of an era of one of the oldest pubs in Basingstoke.
