| When requesting a "top-up" for the cask ale I had purchased (Skinners), I was met with resistance , reticence and even ridicule. I had paid for a pint of liquid ale, not part froth. Later, when trying to obtain a further 1/2pt of the same ale the staff refused to serve me, and a person that I believe to be the manager, was called for and fulfilled my request. (He seemed slightly bemused) As a pensioner on a fixed shrinking income, who enjoys an occasional real ale, I will not accept the care less service from staff who are unaware that a pint glass has to be full of liquid. (Just like a pint of milk). Please let me know why the staff at the Tamar Hotel, Crownhill are resistant to a request for what I have paid for. (sorry about the preposition at the end of the sentence) I have lived in this locality for all of my 74 yrs, but have become disappointed with less service for more money., especially in the "Tamar". ps. Your Menu is great. robjbye - 17 Jun 2011 19:56 |
| I know that the Tamar is not a weatherspoons, but the chain has had an enourmous impact on the demise of the great British Pub!! Shoey - 1 Oct 2010 01:17 |

| Moved away from Plymouth back in 1999, I used to drink in here as long ago as 1977, I lived locally then, Don & Peggy Vadacorte, ( think I spelt it right) had it then, this is in the day when 42 comando where based at Seaton barracks and Crownhill fort was stationed by a logistics regiment I think? also Manadon Royal Naval engineering college was on the doorstep, Great times then, pubs used to close at 2.30 in the afternoon and reopen at 6pm, 2pm on a Sunday and reopen @ 7pm in the evening, The Tamar also had a snug in those days with off sales selling every thing from fags to sweets to draught sherry, you could top any bottle you took in. As with most pubs in that era there was a seperate saloon bar from a Lounge bar, the lounge bar being about 2pence dearer for drinks than the saloon bar because it had carpet & curtains. The only food offer in those days was one of Peggy's sandwhiches or a pasty or pie from the back bar pie warmer, I honestly belive that pubs where far better places then than they will ever be today, you had some great characters in pubs in those days , when it was sky, pool tabe free, and what ever happened to the rattle of Dominoes and the graet craic!

| Oddly structured on the inside, everything squashed around the outside walls with gaping holes in the centre of the main room(inexplicably not filled with extra seating!). Other than that, very welcoming and bright place, perfect for soaking up your bacon pastry from the Three Cooks over the road! getsit - 2 Mar 2008 11:33 |
