The Inn at Freshford, Freshford

I visited this place with a friend earlier in the year. Its an attractive pub in a great spot so was looking forward to it. We ordered the "Dark and Hansome", took a slurp and found it was off. When trying to have our beers changed we suffered a drawn out conversation with the barmaid who assured us that it was fine; that she had sold loads that morning and it "is a strong beer"... We tried to exchange for a pint of "Blind House" and that too was off. Eventually we got a good pint. But didn't stay for a second, taking the short walk along the river to the Avoncliff where the same beers were served in tip top condition. I would like to be able to recommend this pub but dont feel I can.
