Decent pub . Not only has everybody shagged each other here - they all tell each other about it. Unique pub

Well they closed and refurbished this place after the smoking ban came in and it's still a fly-blown dump. Toilets disgraceful so god knows what the cellar is like. Often felt sick after drinking draught here so switched to bottles. Staff are attitude-ridden queens.
Only the clientele make it bearable :-)
Manager has a "DJ" in on a Saturday so converstaion is impossible, he'd obviously rather be running a club than the potentially cracking traditional Gay boozer he has...

This once great establishment has sadly been fading since the departure of Steve Holroyd. Karaoke is a real winner on a Sunday night but overall the pub is nowhere near as busy as it once was and I think this is mainly due to the surly attitude of certain staff. The punters make this place friendly, but the staff find it difficult to smile and are at times, particularly unwelcoming. Thank goodness for the smoking ban in 6 weeks time, this place supposedly has air conditioning but I have struggled to feel it! The toilets are small and in a constant state of disrepair. Refurbishment is long overdue and what happened to the relaxed drinking laws? This place still kicks out in a very rude and unfriendly manner. There are alternatives on the bear scene to the Kings Arms these days, the brewery and management would do well to remember this.

i wouldn't recognise the bar from these descriptions, i now only go in occasionally for the pool table and the staff and atmosphere could hardly be less welcoming

It can get terribly crowded in the evenings, and also, crucially, they take away the chairs after 6pm. It`s a friendly enough place, and if I sit in there long enough, I usually see at least one person I know. Upstairs can be a bit less crowded.
