Visited a few months ago. Ale was magic as usual. Landlord (bizarrely) seems to like me and always has a chat. He asked me would I like to try a pint of ale from his own new brewery. Gee thanks yeah I said and off he went to the cellar. Yes it was a good pint where often new brewery beer can be hit and miss. Yes very enjoyable I said as I drank it. "£2.40 please" he said...............heh heh heh. Legendary landlord in a legendary pub.

A medium sized, open plan pub, just a few minutes walk away from the high street. It has quite a plain interior, to the extent of even having the dreaded ‘Artex’ on the ceiling, in the main room. Benches line the wall as well as traditional round tables and chairs. There is a partially covered outdoor drinking area to the rear.

There were seven real ales available when I called and the quality of the MHB ‘Swedish Nightingale’ and particularly the Oakham ‘Endless Summer’, on this visit, was excellent. There were also Belgian beers and a good selection of malt whisky available. Huge sandwiches looked good value.

The young barman was friendly and obliging.

As an infrequent visitor to Worcester, I’ve always headed to The Dragon on ‘automatic pilot’, because of its glowing reputation and Good Beer Guide listing. However, on this last visit I finally admitted to myself that I don’t really like it as a pub. Despite all its good points, it just doesn’t do it for me.

Out of curiosity I tried The Plough, also GBG listed, on the same weekend. If you like your pubs a little more cosy and intimate, like I do, I suggest you try there instead.

Top of the range pub, excellent range of well kept beers.

As far as I'm concerned, this is easily the best pub in Worcester, and one of the best in the UK

One of the premier real ale pubs in Worcester and one that all enthusiasts will head for when visiting. A good ever changing range that usually includes a stout or porter and a real cider. It’s not a large bar but there are a few tables outside at the back that act as an overflow. Visit there if you get the chance, we need real pubs like this to survive. Only 5 minutes walk from Foregate St station
