| Another friendly rural locals pub. Whilst it is a Greene King pub, they do appear to have guests from other breweries. I sampled the Elgoods Black Dog, which was fetched from the cellar. Greene King IPA & Abbot were also on. The bar area is very traditional and has a nice tiled floor and a large real fireplace. To the side is a games area with a TV and I believe I saw a pool table. Nice pub, with friendly staff and customers. blue_scrumpy - 21 Nov 2011 20:31 |
| Pleasant Greene King local, caters well for diners and drinkers; the GK seasonal (April ?) was superb - they can brew decent beer if they try. mtaylor40 - 11 Jun 2011 17:46 |
| After being a regular for 12 years, I have noticed a very steep decline in standard. The new management have painted the insides a boring lifeless white. The beer has gone downhill. Are there beer pumps cleaned (does make me wonder)! Food is over-priced for what it is. The bar staff are somewhat loud, not the place to go and enjoy a pint with a friend. My verdict on this pub is currently 2 out of 10. Much needs to be improved. I seriously recomend you don't bother with this pub. There are far better pubs 3 miles further in St Ives. caskaledrinker - 30 Jun 2008 20:51 |
| We used to live nearby and went regularly for the excellent food and beer. Now, living 80 miles away, we drive to Cambridgeshire twice a year to visit the White Swan and then go onto the 5-mile round walk taking in St Ives and the Hemingfords. It's still (20 years on) a convivial pub with bar billiards and good-value lunchtime food. Long may this continue. Braganca - 23 Apr 2007 23:27 |
