| As someone mentioned before - it's good to have a pub in an area of trendy bars. Food not that amazing and there are better places around to eat, but serves its purpose when the cause of and solution to all life's problems - beer! - starts getting to your head a bit too much. And the beer was good. The interior would perhaps need a lick of paint, but then again it would take away part of the charm. crickey - 19 Aug 2010 17:04 |
| Quite a traditional looking establishment - although apparently it was converted from a shop not that long ago - and one which I guess is supposed to have a nautical theme (but this doesn't really extend much past the pub sign and a ship's wheel propped up by the front door). Rustic wooden furniture at the front part of the bar, with dining tables further back. Three real ales on - Pride, Adnams and Batemans XB (not cheap at £3.40) - plus a selection of Belgian bottled beers (also steeply priced). Unusually, upstairs is now an art gallery (Charlie Smith). Overall, one of the better places in the area for a pint. rpadam - 10 Mar 2010 23:18 |
| A bit quirky as people have said, which is better than the bland. Beer was Butcombe Bitter; food a burger which was ok. Upstairs area is nice with couches and small tables. rainlight - 10 Dec 2009 07:54 |
| Anything good about this pub is negated by the unwelcoming and resentful staff..having arrived at 10pm, our group (+20-30 other patrons) was herded downstairs part at 10:30..staff were happy to serve us at 10:55, but the rude and aggressive way that we were hassled to drink up and leave by 11:15 was both unnecessary and unreasonable and sent a clear message as to how the management of this pub view their customers. Will not be going back. uunnttzz - 2 Oct 2009 13:40 |
