| popped in here after walking past the empty and deserted King st. tavern, although not full(about 20 people), it had a nice atmosphere, good local ales, real cider and a friendly landlord, just how a pub should be littlecon - 28 Oct 2011 11:16 |
| Great, friendly backstreet local with good beer from local breweries. More down-market than the nearby King St Tavern, but the two pubs complement each other nicely. baxterfish - 29 Jan 2011 22:27 |
| Very good backstreet local's pub which, on Saturday afternoon, was very welcoming to us visiting strangers. There is one large bar with alcoves on the left foa pool table and, notably, a bar billiards table. To the right the bar extends, past a table football machine, an upright piano, bookshelf and board games, to an serving area for the advertised Sunday carvery. There is lots of old carving and some nice stained glass and generally the place was clean and tidy. To the rear there is a walled beer garden with a covered smoking area complete with sofa, traditional beer garden tables and a covered bbq area. The rear wall is, at the moment covered in glorious flaming red autumn leaves from a tree in the garden beyond. The friendly, wlcoming landlord seemed well informed about his ales, which on Saturday were Bottle Shop Porter, London Pride, fff Moondance, Bowman Swift One and Oakleaf Pompey Royal. There was also a real cider. The Porter was very more-ish and my friends raved about the Moondance. There was some good background music - old reggae and new wave and a good turnover of relaxed clientele through a very pleasant afternoon. Well worth searching out if you are down in this neck of the woods. flashharry1965 - 11 Oct 2010 10:43 |
| Excellent sidestreet pub. Very large interior that sports a pool table, table football AND sparkly new bar billiards table. Good revolving range of local ales, usually four on at any time. Friendly bar staff and locals. Well worth a visit along with the neighbouring King Street Tavern. Pentargo - 6 Sep 2010 11:40 |
