Very very good, food a1

the Wheatie has really turned round since Punch sold it, always 3 real ales on in great condition including my favorite - Hawkeshead Bitter. Open all day every day, somewhat unusual in this area. If strange to the area also try the Crown Hotel, Waltons Bar.
|
Cracking pint, proper local village pub. Keep up the good work. Food good as well
|
A very busy locals pub with a couple of well kept real ales on. Good atmosphere and a warm welcome.
|
service a bit slow but good atmosphere . well worth including in your crawl
|
Back on its feet again and serving interesting ales in good condition, well worth a visit on the Corby / Wetheral pub crawl.
|
Now privately owned and hopefully improving, watch this space.
|
Great pub had a fantastic meal. Was made to feel extremely welcome the guest ale was especially good this week. Would definitely recommend this traditional pub to anyone. Nice friendly staff, I ended up spending all afternoon in beer garden.
|
Unfortunately the new tenants seem to care more about reading newspapers than making their customers feel welcome, on my last 2 visits there were only a couple of customers in including me - and that was Sunday lunchtime, as usual once I had been served my pint I was ignored. The 2 real ales were of the boring common variety - GK ipa & Black Sheep Bitter, have these people no imagination whatsoever, Punch have a good guest list. Not worth the bother, try the Crown instead.
|
New younger couple now in but still a bit quiet, hopefully will soon re-establish itself. Worth a visit along with the Crown if you are in Wetheral.
Try the 2 pubs across the river in Great Corby.
|
A shadow of its former self, usually deserted - if they bother to open at all. This pub needs young blood behind the bar as it was a haunt of students in the past. Punch needs to sort a reasonable rent - why should tenants work for nothing ?
|
The Wheatsheaf re-opened on Monday 3rd December - and what a great night it was - despite zilch publicity from Punch. New landlord and landlady are lovely. Food is not being served at the moment but they are hoping to get that sorted shortly. Not smokey any more since smoking ban.
|
Latest rumour is open first week in December, same with Queen in Great Corby.
|
Closed 2 days ago - Why ? its a Punch Tavern - surprise, surprise.
|
Excellent pub...very welcoming...nice beers.
The food was excellent too and the puddings were devine.
|
3 real ales, interesting well priced menu, well worth a visit but can get smoky when busy. Try the Killoran nearby before it closes.
