| Currently selling real ale. Choice of Cocker Hoop and Hobgoblin in early Feb. The Cocker Hoop was on good form and reasonably priced. dalefan - 7 Feb 2012 14:50 |
| Known locally as �The Tobes� this pub has been here for as long as I can remember as I used to go to school just around the corner. Up until relatively recently it was a Burtonwood pub and only sold keg beers. Under new ownership it now sells the real stuff. There�s a large lounge to the left as you enter and a much smaller one just to the right. In the large room to the right there�s a pool table and a quiz machine. This room is used to show football whenever there�s a big match on. The lounges are nicely decorated and look much better then they have in the past. It can be a bit rough and ready as some of the locals can get a bit raucous at times. There are now two handpumps on the bar but only one was being used selling Brakspears Oxford Gold, it was pretty average really and I certainly wouldn�t have wanted another one. I was also give a Mexican two peso coin in my change rather than a �2 piece as they look very similar, it could have been an �accident�. It�s still not great but it�s better than it has been in the recent past. ROBCamra - 27 Jul 2009 12:29 |
