Don't know why people rave about this place so much. Sure, it's ok, but you could do a lot better.

The cocktails are good, but quite expensive and take a long time to make, meaning that you can expect to queue FOREVER at the bar when it's busy
Ale is good quality, but not a big selection, and there is a decent range of bottled/draught beers, lagers and ciders, plus wines, all of which are, however, pretty overpriced. Same goes for the food, really: quite good, but definitely overpriced and not served late enough.

Gets VERY busy at weekends and given the amount of space-hogging leather couches you need to get in early to find somewhere to sit. Also a predominantly too-cool-for-school trendy student crowd. Nice beer garden, however, and the staff are generally friendly.

Go for a couple in the afternoon, maybe cocktail happy hour, and avoid later on in the evening.

An excellent pub. Good beers and pleasant surroundings and a nice outside area. Plenty of students but seem to be the more sensible type. Certainly a better place than the nearby Newcastle which seems to lost it recently only partly due to the smoking ban.

Went in last night (thursday), it's a bit loud, and pretty crowded, but OK. A lot of trendy looking students (I think) in there later on.

The Batemans XB was 2.40 a pint, and tasted good. There was a guest beer as well. Staff were freindly, atmospere was relaxed. We stood, but there were a few tables and easy chairs.

Decent pub, the beer was OK, I'd go again, maybe towards the end of the evening when I don't mind the loud music so much! (getting old....)
