THIS PUB IS A LEGEND. THE LANDLORD IS THE BEST. NOT FOR THE DELICATE THIS PUB SERVES WAR HEROES FROM AROUND THE GLOBE. WE NEED TO HAVE SOMEWHERE TO LET OFF STEAM AND THIS IS THE BEST PLACE WHERE WE CAN GO AND ENJOY OURSELVES. GAME SHOW ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON IS A MUST AND ALTHOUGH THE JUDGE IS A BIT BIASED SOMETIMES, HE DOES GIVE IT AWAY TO THE NEEDY.
PETE IS THE SORT OF LANDLORD YOU NEED WITH BIG BURLY MARINES EVERYWHERE BUT BOY OH BOY IS HE THE TOPS.

JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW THE NEW LICENSING LAWS DON'T MEAN 24hr DRINKING. THE CIDER PRESS IS NOW ABLE TO OPEN UNTIL 1.30 ON FRIDAY & SATURDAY NIGHTS BUT ACTUALLY WILL ONLY BE OPENING TIL MIDNIGHT AT A PUSH THE SAME APPLIES TO SMOKEY JOES NEXT DOOR. WE HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A SAFE & ENJOYABLE CHRISTMAS AND THAT YOU LADIES GET YOUR STOCKINGS FILLED AGAIN THIS YEAR.X

SMOKEY JOES sells all sorts of ciders, bottled , flaggons , rough and really rough.Priced upmarket but heavily discounted for poor students who have a valid S.U. card.

This pub has an atmosphere like no other.At the weekend it belts out all the tunes you can sing & dance to.Most people end up dancing on the tables where everyone can see you.It has the friendliest of doorstaff & in the 2 years I have been going there I don't recall there having been a fight.Drinks are on the pricey side but if you are a student & you can prove it they offer a very competetive discount scheme.Its an ideal starting point before going over to the Quay Club on a Wednesday for Jelly Jazz.I'd rate this pub 10 out of 10 for Buzz & 8 out of 10 for pricing.Interesting Gents Loos

THRILLED THAT THESE 2 UNPRETENTIOUS PEOPLE HAVE WON THE RIGHT TO RUN THIS QUAINT OLD CHARMER.
ITS ABOUT TIME IT HAD SOME DECENT MANAGERS IN TO GET RID OF THE RIFF RAFF ELEMENT THAT USED TO FREQUENT THE PLACE.
IT REALLY IS A FANTASTIC PUB WITH LOTS OF CHARACTER AND THEY ARE MAKING A REALLY GOOD JOB OF RUNNING IT.
MONIAS COOKING IS GREAT AND STUARTS ORGANISATIONAL SKILLS ARE REALLY BEING PUT TO GOOD USE.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU BOTH.
