The Castle Inn, West Lulworth

Recently purchased and modernised/ruined by Butcomb. Used to be a characterful English pub with lots of nooks & crannies, but now feels soulless and corporate and all the guest beers have gone to be replaced by 3 dull Butcomb beers. Have been coming here for decades but will not be returning. Reminds me of what Hall & Woodhouse did to the Smugglers at O.Mills. I am so depressed - my visits to Dorset will never be the same.

The Rutland and Derby, Leicester

Modern hipster place and pricey for Leicester. Beer choice good and good food. The Blue Boar over the road is where you really want to be.
