| Modernised high ceilinged pub on the narrow and old style Watling St. It does have an outside area to the rear although as I visited during the recent cold snap this was redundant and the high ceilings made the pub some somewhat austere and cold in atmosphere. There is also a downstairs bar to take the overflow in the evenings. From the beer selection I presume this is a Marston establishment with four ales on offer being Brakspears, Marstons Pedigree, Hobgoblin and Mansfield Old Baily. I had a decent pint of Hobgoblin if slightly too cold although I put this down to the Arctic conditions outside. This is a reasonable if unremarkable pub and I wouldn't come here over the Watlin for example. In the summer however, the high ceilings and outside space make it a more attractive proposition although I have to say it did used to get rammed a few years back which would put me off a bit murgatroyd - 7 Dec 2010 14:06 |
| Visited on a Saturday to take in a 3D footy match and a couple of pints. The beer was in good condition and the food my friends ordered was not cheap, but seemed good quality. Staff were also very friendly. Things may be different on a Friday evening when the place is heaving, but I couldn't really fault anything. BothamsAshes - 18 Oct 2010 17:23 |
| Modernised pub with lots of light wood in the main bar. Also has a cellar bar and a smaller area down a few steps which leads to the main attraction - a large (for the City) two-level beer garden at the back. Several silent TVs showing live sport plus background music. Didn't eat, but the menu looked pretty reasonable price-wise. Four beers on handpump - a decent pint of Pedigree, the seasonal Pedigree Diamond and Fever Pitch plus Wychwood's Regal 'real' lager. Not exactly special, but if the weather permits and you avoid office decanting time then a sunny spot outside can be quite pleasant. rpadam - 19 Jul 2010 22:14 |
| Nicely tucked away off Bow Lane, been here a couple of times and on the weekend to see the Machester Derby in 3D on Saturday. Good prices for the City and a nice garden out the back now the sunshine is returning! bar_crawler - 19 Apr 2010 16:21 |
| Visited recently and detected a slight improvement - four real ales on handpump, which is not bad for what is really more a bar than a pub. It's run by Marston's, so three of the ales were from them, and one was Jennings (IPA, I think). Will raise my mark a notch, I think. grecian - 18 Jun 2009 12:25 |
