The Shipwright Arms, Helford Village
Lovely thatched pub overlooking the Helford river, real ales well kept, the bar staff were very friendly and efficient and the locals were chatty. Didn't try the food but what was being served looked good. A good pub.

Excellent pub, comfortable with a good selection of well kept real ales. Good service and good prices recommended.

Starting going in here again after getting out of the habit when it closed down. Great to see the pub back up to speed, the Harvest Pale was well kept, a good pint, good to see people supporting this pub again. Best pub in the area by far.

Recently called in here for a couple of pints after the football at Salford FC. The pub is tucked away up a small side street and despite its location there were quite a few people in. Its very basic and traditional which adds to it for me, the local clientele shall we say were interesting but very friendly. The real ales are very well kept, i enjoyed this pub and will definately be visiting again.

The Harewood Arms, Broadbottom
A superb pub, comfortable, friendly, and with a good selection of Green Mill beers all in top condition and well priced, well recommended.

Comfortable roomy pub with an upstairs restauraunt, six real ales on offer all of a good standard, friendly pleasant staff and the menu is better than the standard pub fare. I was expecting to pay more than i did so that was another plus, overall a very good pub serving good real ales and good food at a decent price. I will certainly be using this place again, easily the best pub in the area, impressed.

The Cheshire Cheese Hotel, Buxton
Went to Buxton today for the football and found this pub via the good beer guide, a comfortable pub with friendly staff and a good selection of real ales in excellent condition, i didnt eat but the food being served looked very good, an excellent pub well worth visiting and one i shall certainly be returning to.

Excellent pub, good choice of well kept independant real ales, a varied menu at a good price we had the cheese and onion pie which was superb, the best we have ever tasted, lovely homemade chips and very efficient friendly table service. This pub is a must, will definately be returning.

The Briton's Protection Hotel, Castlefield
Superb interior but that's as far as it goes for me, a pint costing £3.70 is way overpriced even for the city centre, the selection of real ales was quite uninspiring too, there was only one other person drinking in the pub so resembled a morgue, will by-pass this pub in future as it is surrounded by far better and cheaper real ale pubs, a big disappointment

First time in here, not many people in at all, for a saturday afternoon the place was empty, still the service was woeful, the girl behind the bar was more interested in chatting to regulars than doing her job, the toilets were not up to scratch, rather messy and needed seeing to, the beer, Mordues Oatmeal Stout was though kept in good condition. One of the worst wetherspoons ive been in .

The Anglers Rest, Millers Dale
Visited this pub today, on entering was given a very friendly warm welcome from the lovely lady that runs the pub, the other lady that was working the bar was also very friendly, the food was excellent and the jam roly poly a must. The beers were kept in top quality condition. This is how a pub should be, friendly staff and locals, and in a lovely setting. Cant fault a thing and will certainly be back. Highly recommended.
15 Sep 2013 15:57
First time in this pub which has just changed hands, real ales were dizzy blonde and unicorn, standard robinsons ales but served in a decent condition, not a great choice on the menu but what we had we enjoyed, decent sized portions and reasonably priced, very friendly lady behind the bar, pub very clean and tidy and would definately stop off here again, a pleasant visit.
3 Aug 2013 16:40
Good pub, good selection of well kept beer BUT... just called in and it was pretty busy the young girl behind the bar was serving and i walked up to the bar right in front of her, so she definately saw me, she completed serving her order and then served the other person who was in front of me, a couple then just walked in and she went straight to them and to another couple of locals who were behind me, as good a pub as it is this girl wants to learn to serve in order instead of local faces first, hate this when you come across it in a pub, a negative aspect for me.

The White House, Littleborough
Have used this pub on several occasions and never been disappointed, good value meals and well kept real ales along with friendly staff makes this a good choice pub. Set in lovely surroundings a visit here is a must.
12 May 2013 15:19
This pub gets better and better, superb staff, very friendly locals and very good value good quality meals, beers always in very good condition, this pub has no negatives at all.

The Riverhead Brewery Tap, Marsden
Excellent pub was very busy but the staff were very efficient and friendly, beers in top form, a highly recommended pub.

The Ash Tree, Ashton Under Lyne
My big gripe with this pub used to be the terrible service and misrable staff but i have to say this is no longer the case. The quality and range of real ales is always very good, ive never had a pint below average condition and as most tend to be �1.99 a pint you certainly cant grumble when the likes of the dog and pheasant on oldham road are charging �3.20 a pint for bog standard marstons and a few regular guest beers. Ashton is a real ale desert so the ash tree is very welcome as it gives us one outlet where good real ales can be sampled.
20 Aug 2012 13:50
A nice pub that does retain some character, the jennings cumberland ale was well kept, the food we had omlettes and scampi with chips and peas was very nice as was the apple pie and toffee puds with custard. All in all a good experiance and when in town again a pub i would certainly revisit.
28 Dec 2011 19:13
Went in here yesterday instead of the knott bar, not a great selection of beers, two from coach house and one from robinsons, at �3.35 for a 4.1% pint found it over priced, the knott has far better choice, this pub is the most expensive for real ale ive found in manchester, will be giving it a miss in future.
30 Aug 2011 10:27
First time id been in this pub, really nice setting with glorious views, the service and manner of the guy behind the bar was very good, rather expensive for a pint of tribute but its what you would expect really, i didnt eat but the food being served looked good and there was a decent menu with some interesting specials. The quality of the beer wasnt the best to be honest but i put that down to it being early afternoon and i think i had the first one out. Theres a lovely terrace up some steps again with great views. I wouldnt hesitate to use this pub again when in the area.

Royal Artillery Arms, Highbridge
Popped in here for a couple of pints after the speedway, very friendly owners and locals, well kept real ales at good prices only pub i saw down somerset and cornwall that prices ales by abv. Excellent local will certainly visit again when in area.

The Smugglers Den Inn, Newquay
Lovely pub very olde worlde, friendly bar staff and well kept real ales, didnt have a meal but the fare looked good, a comfortable relaxed pub, recommended.
24 May 2011 23:42
Lovely pub when i went in about 9pm midweek there was only the guy behind the bar(landlord?) and one local, neither made an attempt to chat and even though the pubs nice and the beer well kept a misrable visit
24 May 2011 23:40
Well worth finding, tucked away near the airport in a picturesque village, very food orientated but the real ales are well kept, place was packed with diners, a nice pub
24 May 2011 23:36
This is a very nice spacious pub but the couple of times i was in was virtually empty, bar staff were very friendly and the st austell proper job and tribute were well kept. Menu looked appetizing but i didnt eat here myself. Have live music at weekends.
24 May 2011 23:34
Called in here only a couple of locals in, woman behind the bar was friendly the doom bar was in decent condition.
24 May 2011 23:31
Lanherne Pub and Restaurant, Newquay
A locals pub, the beers were skinners and tintagel and were pretty well kept, comfy enough pub a bit off the beaten track
24 May 2011 23:26
Nice views and the real ales were well kept, prompt service even though the place was busy, didnt try the food but it looked good.
24 May 2011 23:24
The st austell beers were well kept and was a good place to watch the live football, very modern decor with no real pub atmosphere though.
24 May 2011 23:22
Went in this pub a couple of times on a recent visit to cornwall, the staff were friendly enough and service was quick, the real ales were well priced compared to the towns other pubs abd were well kept, the food was standard wetherspoon fare, all in all not a bad place for a quick pint and bite.
24 May 2011 23:20
The Anglers Rest, Millers Dale
An excellent pub serving well kept real ales in a picturesque setting. The staff and locals were very friendly, didnt try the food but what was being served looked good. Very welcoming a pub well worth returning to.
24 Apr 2011 22:18
Found this pub as i was in burscough for the football. An excellent pub, very clean, staff attentative and friendly, good selection of real ales (6) and in very good condition. I didnt have anything to eat but the food being served looked good. Highly reccommended.
10 Jan 2011 20:34
I went in this pub for the first time in a long time yesterday, its a lot better since reopening, brighter, cleaner, and very friendly staff, the beers were very good quality, its back on the list of manchester real ale pubs for me.

The Hillsborough Hotel, Sheffield
First visit to this pub whilst visiting sheffield for the speedway. Very friendly pleasant barmaid, excellent choice of real ales, kept in very good condition, didnt try the meals as there were no menus present didnt think they were cooking but found out too late they were doing trad roasts, an excellent pub and definately one to visit when i do a sheffield real ale tour, great pub.
26 Sep 2010 23:16
Just visited this pub again, whilst still an excellent pub with a good selection of well kept ales i noticed a lot of the pints pulled were well short of being full pints, there were heads of over an inch and at no time was an offer to top up made by the barman, no one actually asked for a top up either, strange considering they were such short measures. Hope this dosent become the norm here.
17 Sep 2010 23:36
The Tap and Spile, Wolverhampton
Called in here after the posada, what a double whammy, summer lightning below average, better quality than posada....just, think camra need to check their gbg enteries around here.
28 Jun 2010 23:27
First time in here on a visit to wolverhampton, be my last as well beer quality very poor.
28 Jun 2010 23:25
Lovely typical english country pub. Really pleasant polite staff, good choice of local ales in good condition, food was very good and reasonably priced compared to some others. A good find would certainly return.
22 May 2010 18:03
Excellent pub with a good range of well kept real ales. Friendly atmosphere, great place to enjoy a pint or two, best in oldham by a mile.
8 Feb 2010 15:53
Cat sat on the bar lapping away put me off, meal here? No thanks.
30 Dec 2009 00:21
Visited this pub during a recent stay, real ales were abbott and ruddles, the couple now running it are a very friendly couple who going off previous reports have started to turn this pub around, it was a pleasant place to have a pint.
30 Dec 2009 00:18
Called in this pub for the first time as i was in Retford today. A typical wetherspoons pub. What i found on this visit was plenty of tables left full of empty glasses, cups, plates, and cutlery. This gave the pub a very shabby and untidy appearance and certainly didnt give the impression that the staff were keeping on top of the job. The bar was quiet so there was no excuse for the lack of tidying up after people had eaten and left. I walked round trying to find a table free of clutter and settled for a table opposite the main bar, not tidy but better than other tables where more than two people had obviously dined. The most unkempt wetherspoons ive ever been in, not an inspiring choice of real ales either, disappointing.
5 Dec 2009 21:52
Nice enough pub but when i was in i was kept waiting by unfriendly staff who then continued to serve locals who had come in after me. I pulled the guy up behind the bar who just stood there looking stupid and mumbling something about he hadnt seen me even though at one point there was only me at the bar waiting to be served as he continued talking to the barmaid, i gave them a piece of my mind and walked out. Im going to be in Brixham again soon might just pop in and see if its changed any.

The Weary Ploughman Inn, Churston Ferrers
Beer kept in good condition, a bit pricey, not into the modern decor feels a bit sterile.
22 Nov 2009 19:42
Always go in here when im in Brixham, staff friendly enough and real ales well kept.
22 Nov 2009 19:40
Very friendly staff, beer was Theakstons Black Bull, Deuchars IPA, and Adnams Gunhill, in good condition, the food was good the steak and ale pie excellent, overall a good pub.
11 Oct 2009 00:59
Country pub tucked away in a town. Very friendly real ales always on top form. Super pub.
6 Aug 2009 23:39
Ive just been to the beer festival too with a mate. �3.40 a pint is way out of order, was only 2 people serving too and was taking ages to get served due to pouring out bottles of lager, its a beer festival after all. Also no tasting notes printed, very poor effort will be giving this place a miss from now on along with others i spoke to.
28 Jun 2009 13:06
Just visited this pub for the first time since its reopening. Very impressive, its been refurbished which has improved the surroundings, the staff are very friendly, a good variety of real ales, all the ones i tried were bang in form. Theres cuban cusine served there now by way of bar food and an upstairs restauraunt, i didnt try the food but it looked really good, am planning to go back and try it. A superb pub highlighted by the amount of people present, also the ales are really well priced from �1.70 to � 2.20. Get down there and support it a gem.
6 Jun 2009 23:55
The San Francisco Brewing Company, San Francisco
Excellent pub with some good beers on, good happy hour between 1-4 pm with a pint 3.50 dollars. Didnt eat here but food looked plentiful and good. Bit dearer in the evenings 5.00 dollars a pint but theres live entertainment. One of my favorite pubs.
24 May 2009 01:39
Magnolia Pub and Brewery, San Francisco
Very good choice of beers and very friendly staff. Food was pretty good too, only downside is it was rather expensive for what it was compared to other brew pubs around san francisco.
24 May 2009 01:36
A great pub with really friendly staff and locals. The roast dinners were good value, recommended.
24 May 2009 01:33
The Gold Dust Lounge, San Francisco
An ok pub but i found lefty odouls round the corner far more of a friendly pub, thought the staff here lacked personality and were a bit surly.
24 May 2009 01:32
First time in this pub, three real ales on in excellent condition, had a meal and the food was reasonably priced and very good value, huge piece of homemade steak and kidney pie with chips and veg more than filled a gap. Well worth patronising.
27 Apr 2009 15:40
Comfy pub with a good selection of well kept ales, nice friendly girl behind the bar.
5 Apr 2009 01:43
Superb pub, good selection of real ales in good condition, friendly bar maid, good atmosphere, really enjoyed this pub.
21 Mar 2009 21:54
A decent pint of strongarm but a bit of a sterile enviroment, no atmosphere at all.
21 Mar 2009 21:52
Unfriendly bar staff, frightening looking tattoed women, generally rough clientele.
16 Mar 2009 00:41
Dont bring manchester into it a place like this wouldnt last 2 mins round here.
14 Mar 2009 01:15
Very comfy pub with a very friendly staff serving well kept cask ales.
16 Feb 2009 20:35
Ive just visited this pub that i found in the beer guide. I was a bit unsure due to the low mark its got on here. All i can say is theres no way this pub is a 4. It was busy when i visited, i was served straight away by friendly staff, the real ales were kept in good condition and the prices were reasonable considering the location. Most people were eating and the food looked good and again not overpriced. Its a bit dark on first entering until your eyes adjust but overall i thought this a good pub, with well kept ales at fair prices. The roaring fire was welcome on a cold day too.
29 Dec 2008 12:25
Nice pub and the food was good, but... i thought the portions were small for the prices they charge which i think are ott, fish, chips, peas, �11.50? For example.
9 Dec 2008 23:27
Just popped in here as i was passing, the pub smells damp and musty and i was served the worst pint of tiger rut ive ever tasted. A really good beer when on song, surely not to be included in next years beer guide? A thumbs down.
6 Sep 2008 23:04
The Sir Loin Of Beef, Southsea
Superb pub, have just spent the weekend in Southsea and this was the best of the pubs i tried. Good selection of real ales served in good condition, friendly service, a gem.
25 Aug 2008 22:13
Found this pub not so bad, beer a bit pricy but you expect that in this area but it was in fairly good condition especally the HSB. Staff were friendly enough and efficient, will certainly call in again when back down the south coast.
14 Jul 2008 23:36
Superb pub, real ales were in good condition, freindly, cheap for the area, rock bands, what more do you want?
14 Jul 2008 23:32
The Station Hotel, Ashton Under Lyne
Since my last comment i have to say this pub has rapidly gone downhill. Its dirty and dingy, dog basket and bowls of dog food at the end of the bar, either one out of six handpumps on or no beer at all. Quality not up to what it was, never anymore than half a dozen people in, dirty, dark, avoid, a dive.
18 May 2008 00:43
Visited this pub yesterday, quite a few in but was served right away and the bar staff had a very friendly manner. The two different guest ales i tried were both bang on form, i didnt try the food so cant comment but many were eating and it looked fine. Overall a good pub, beers were in good condition, friendly staff, well worth a visit, very enjoyable.
25 Nov 2007 21:50
The Witchwood, Ashton Under Lyne
Went in this pub against my better jugdement.Only about 7 in but took a while to get served due to changing a barrel. I asked which guest was the most popular thinking it would be in the best condition, the one recommended was off, when i returned it the barmaid said i thought it was off, so why recommend it. The replacement while not being off wasnt a good quality. This pub has seriously gone downhill and now it wouldnt bother me if the regeneration swallowed it up.
5 Nov 2007 22:38
Sorry but fish and chips, burger and chips is standard fare and the prices are high for the food on offer. Very good beer though
14 Oct 2007 21:30
Nice pub, good real ales, and a friendly atmosphere, didnt have anything to eat but lots of food served and looked good.
9 Sep 2007 21:39
The Cheshire Line Tavern, Cheadle
Good comfy pub tucked away. Real ales in good condition, didnt have a meal but what was being served looked nice. Friendly staff.
3 Sep 2007 17:16
Very much improved after changing hands. The improvements to the interior stand out when you go in, the superb range of real ales were in excellent condition, good friendly service, super pub.
3 Sep 2007 00:41
Very clean and comfy pub, a friendly welcome, bitter was above average, didnt have anything to eat but what was being served looked good. All told on first impressions a very impressive pub.
28 Aug 2007 23:15
Good comfy pub, the holts pioneer was in top nick and at �1.69 a pint for a 5% beer not to be grumbled at.
27 Aug 2007 01:05
Clean pub and the adnams broadside was good. I think �9 for fish and chips and �8.70 for burger and chips to be way over the top for standard pub fare. On entering the pub had two menus thrust into my hand and was told the drinks could be ordered from the table when ordering food, only wanting drinks felt this approach slightly railroaded you, took away the feel of a traditional pub for me.
23 Jul 2007 23:05
Good comfy pub with good real ales and a friendly clientele.
9 Jul 2007 16:47
Tried this pub sunday lunch for a couple of pints, really friendly staff, good service, the coach house Dick Turpin was in excellent condition. A nice rural setting could find no fault.
8 Jul 2007 19:45
Best wetherspoons ive been in, quick service well kept real ales, and the meals ordered were very enjoyable, couldnt fault it.
11 Jun 2007 23:41
Superb selection of real aleas from micro breweries, friendly staff, a comfy pub to enjoy good beer, well worth a visit.
11 Jun 2007 23:36
Lovely pub in a rural setting, good real ale and friendly staff, well worth finding.
11 Jun 2007 23:34
Excellent friendly pub, real ales in superb condition, good menu.
7 May 2007 20:47
On entering this pub i smiled at the blonde barmaid and got nothing only a stare in return, she served a couple who were before me, knowing i was waiting she then proceeded to collect glasses, place them in the machine, stand with her mobile phone texting. The landlord came behind the bar so shouted to get served, he was a friendly guy and i was served no problem with the useless barmaid now talking on the phone. I watched her, the landlord was serving as the barmaid did all she could to do nothing. The pub is comfortable with a decent menu, good real ales at a good price, and the landlord and landlady are nice and friendly, only downside the hopeless barmaid.
29 Apr 2007 01:50
Good selection of well kept real ales, huge meals served, friendly staff, a good all round pub.
22 Apr 2007 18:08
The Dog And Pheasant, Waterloo
�2.45 for a pint of cocker hoop is way over the top for the area, no way can this be justified, city centre pubs a lot cheaper for real ales dearer than some southern coast pubs.
7 Apr 2007 01:23
Went in this pub and was rather quiet, waited for someone to appear behind the bar for what seemed like 10 mins, wasnt far short on checking the time. No apology from the person who appeared, presume its the landlord, appeared surly and not a very friendly type, good beer but had nothing to eat as i remember a burger i had there a couple of years ago. Could and should be a good pub but at this moment in time is not.
1 Apr 2007 01:02
A superb pub, good selection of well kept real ales, friendly staff, good menu, a must.
25 Feb 2007 23:09
The Lantern Pike Inn, Little Hayfield
A superb comfortable pub, friendly welcome good beer a definate must.
20 Feb 2007 22:43
First visit to this pub also the last. Very poorly stocked bar, one guest ale that wasnt bad. Pub was very dusty and the glasses we were served our drinks in were filthy. Appeared dear for the two drinks we bought, when the big screen was pulled down we were sat in the dark as every blind was pulled down. Very poor scores no points.
4 Feb 2007 20:16
Some superb beers on, friendly locals, and great to see non smoking.
28 Jan 2007 20:23
The Station Hotel, Ashton Under Lyne
This pub has certainly taken a turn for the better, beers superb, friendly staff, good juke box, great to see it doing so well, agree the best pub in town.
3 Jan 2007 23:18
A good stopping off point when travelling back up the M5, a very comfortable pub and the Butcombe beers were in good condition, didnt have a meal but menu was well priced and food looked good,not into the large glass window in the gents loo though prefer a bit more privacy lol. A superb pub
31 Dec 2006 21:39
Found this to be rather crowded and the beer below average, very friendly staff trying their best to make everyone feel welcome, doesnt have the feel of a local, not a place to enjoy a few beers for me.
31 Dec 2006 21:34
Friendly staff and the summer lightning and crop circle served in a pretty good condition. Quite a few in was boxing night, atmosphere pleasant.
31 Dec 2006 21:29
The Three Horseshoes, Burton Bradstock
The service was quick and friendly, the beers palmers bitter and tally ho were spot on, is expensive but found that to be the norm around dorset.
31 Dec 2006 21:23
Not much choice of beer here, only the harbourmaster on and was rather insipid, not a pub we would rush back to.
31 Dec 2006 21:20
We called in here for a couple of drinks while in the area, friendly quick bar service, beer quality good, nice atmosphere.
31 Dec 2006 21:17
The Hunters Inn, Pool in Wharfedale
Found this to be an excellent outlet for real ales, all served at a high quality. There was a beer festival on but no problem getting served, friendly bar staff.
17 Dec 2006 20:19
Very good quality bitter and pedigree seems a good local.
4 Dec 2006 20:58
Visited this pub the area round the bar was smokey other area to the left as you enter was fine. The guest beer was very good, ordered some food and have to say the service was fine and the staff friendly. The food itself was good and well priced.
26 Nov 2006 23:34
A superb range of excellent beers at a good price, a superb pub.
19 Nov 2006 23:24
The English Lounge, Manchester
Got fed up waiting for the staff to actually go behind the bar, too busy talking and not paying attention, the third poor pub on a forgettable night.
19 Nov 2006 23:19
The Moon Under Water, Deansgate
Went in on a sunday night when it was quiet, the bar as you enter was shut so had to go upstairs or the far downstairs bar, considering the lack of people got fed up waiting to be served totally hopeless left to find another pub.
19 Nov 2006 23:15
The Crown and Anchor, Manchester
The refit has taken away the character of this pub, on entering at quarter to eight on a sunday evening was told the pub was shut, ridiculous for a city centre pub, wont go back.
19 Nov 2006 23:10
Not overly impressed with this pub. Friendly guy behind the bar but not much idea even asked how you do a sweet sherry. There was no sherry, no port, no martini, the real ale was served too cold more like lager temprature. Pub was cold wont be hurrying back.
6 Nov 2006 20:08
A superb pub good beer and food. Good mix of people and a very friendly attractive lady behind the bar always ready with a smile.
22 Oct 2006 19:28
The Wharf Side Inn, Slaithwaite
Comfortable friendly large pub, excellent copper dragon beers. Good well priced food served, large function room, restauraunt, and acommodation.
8 Oct 2006 19:57
A superb pub friendly and well kept real ales, well worth finding.
24 Sep 2006 18:53
Stopped in this pub last week, a superb pub with a good range of well kept real ales from the microbrewers.
24 Sep 2006 18:51
Very friendly pub and beer of good quality, found it a bit dark and dingy though and in need of a clean up
3 Sep 2006 20:35
Found this to be a friendly pub with a decent selection of well kept beers.
28 Aug 2006 00:09
A superb pub with a very friendly landlady and landlord. The beers are well kept and the free food on sunday is a nice touch, worth a small donation into the charity bottle. Cant fault it.
20 Aug 2006 20:51
A grade 2 listed building dating from 1632, superb Lees ales, a very reasonably priced menu, friendly staff, worth a visit.
31 Jul 2006 15:30
Superb pub, great beer always on form, good friendly feel to this pub, a great place to go for a quiet drink, theres live music nights, quizes, and its a meeting place fot the Laurel And Hardy appreciation society, top marks.
18 Jun 2006 13:33
A rare outlet for Hardy and Hansons ales and was in good condition, a nice atmosphere and the staff were efficient, guy on the door was friendly, a nice outdoor area in good weather, overall a comfy pub.
2 Jun 2006 19:52
At �2.65 for a pint of black sheep 3.8% its vastly overpriced compared to a lot of excellent pubs on the manchester real ale scene, choice of only the one real ale also, certainly not worth visiting for value or choice.
21 May 2006 00:28
Decent enough pub beers were in good condition, can get smoky though.
17 May 2006 22:49
Superb pub with an ever changing array of quality real ales, traditional and atmospheric, a must.

Trendy and mainly caters for diners, not much of a pub feel to it, lacks atmosphere, polite staff, real ales were in good condition.

Isolated location too dark to the point when you enter you cant see where your going, rather than add to the ambience it detracts from from it, ok if you like eating/drinking in the dark.

Excellent real ale pub, beers always well kept, the blackboard opposite the bar gives you all the information you need about the ales currently being served. Good service a pub that Denton has needed for a long time.
