Claims to be the smallest pub in England. The lounge is certainly small with the bar squeezed into the right hand side. Even the toilets re upstairs. A limited range of draught beers and lagers and no real ale at all. It was however friendly.

Most people who go here in the evenings are there for the strippers. Some of the girls are good, others ok and some are just awful. For some reason the landlord seems to regularly book two very large (almost obese) Black women; quite off-putting to many potential customers who resent having to give a £1.00 out of politeness to strippers they really would prefer to keep their clothes on!

This is a very small pub and is rather like walking into someone’s front room. Quite cosy in Winter, especially compared to the nearby Forresters, which is cavernous and bleak when only a few customers are in it. The downside is that it can get very crowded very quickly. Expect an influx of loud, braying Northerners about 10.00ish every evening: usually a good time to leave!

Bloody Hell! I wanted to like this pub. I really did. Unfortunately, my open mindedness wasn't rewarded with an enjoyable experience. I got booed by my own mates when I insisted we pop in one Saturday night recently. The terrible, and frankly bizarre, choice of music was played at ear splitting volume enough to smash a World Record and the requisite traffic light disco flashes completed the pretence of an enjoyable evening. I dont wish to comment on the clientele as having not spoken to them I would not wish to make assumptions, but there was something not right about the whole place. Like something was going to happen, and it wasnt going to be very nice. I have been here alone once before on a cold afternoon just to kill some time and it wasnt too bad, but some places just arent Saturday night pubs and I can think of no better an example of such a boozer.

*TERRIBLE PUB! DO NOT GO!*i know a girl who worked in this pub, who walked into it for a shift and was jumped on by a girl who threw a glass at her face and beat her up. nobody in this pub did anything to stop it, noone behind the bar (who she worked for) jumped in, and people drinking there laughed and jeered at her. she only got away because she managed to push the girl off and get to her car. this pub is an atrocious place where local hooligans and drug addicts go, where people do not feel at all welcome, and where it is perfectly ok to let someone get beaten up without intervening. if there were no more pubs in this world i would just give up drinkin rather than set foot near there.

Used to drink in here years ago. Funny crowd got in - some serious problem drinkers, a few old slappers, a nice blonde piece with lovely up-top jose's and a modicom of travelling working crew boys. "No" I'm not a full galoot and want to buy you free ale all night nor am I interested in your Mrs, other sister.
"Yes" I'm sure you earn �10 a week and are really good friends with Sarfends great and good. Icouldn't be less interested if I was dead for a few weeks so bog off. They knicked the telly in here one weekend and the culprints (a couple of handy lad imigrants) were brought back to the pub for cross examination and a fairly decent kicking by the locals and there friends. not sure if that'll happen again now we've gone Digital.
