Fell in love with the place after 10 seconds from entering. A warm, friendly, and happy pub, bar skittles in full force. Lush cider (Chedder Gold at 6.5% was very nice...Thanks Del!!)
Can't wait for my next visit to Tickenham to see my mates Dave, Jenny, & Preston, along with Del & Julie Quinn who promised us it would be an experience!

The friendliest local people you would ever want to meet.
Long may "Le Flame Bleu" be the best Pub I have been to for a very long time.
Glad i only sank 4 pints of the cider though, or else it could have been carnage!

many thanks for your wonderfull hospitality to a family of Teessiders.
I can't wait to come back in 2012.

A completely timeless, unspoilt country pub. It�s quite difficult to describe, but if you imagine the sort of house that a ninety year old might live in, having not touched anything for the last 50 years, you probably wouldn�t be too far out.

It was presumably a residential house at one time (makes a pleasant change for a house to convert to a pub) and the layout is pretty much unchanged since. You go in through a small porch to a hallway. There�s a small snug off to the left which has a table skittles game and a couple of old benches and tables. To the right is a similarly sized room, but with the addition of a small bar counter. There are numerous old photos on the walls and an old fireplace, although I�ve never seen this in use.

Beyond this is another room that tends not to get much use, although I once saw it being used as a barbers shop! This leads down a few steps to an extensive beer garden, with an old caravan in one corner, plenty of picnic tables and a BBQ area. They usually have a big fireworks party in November which is quite spectacular; not only fireworks, but a large bonfire burning an impressive and appropriate model, e.g.; the House of Commons.

This pub won�t be to everyone�s taste. It takes being unspoilt to the extreme, and some might describe it as ramshackle. It hasn�t had a coat of paint for decades and the loos are very basic and outside. But it�s a popular place in spite of being rather remote, and there is usually a crowd of friendly regulars sat out on the benches at the front. Besides crisps, the only food offering might be a couple of filled rolls on the bar and pickled eggs. The landlord Mick is a friendly chap and quite a character.
There�s an ever changing selection of beers served directly from barrels racked up behind the bar. They usually include something from RCH and on a recent visit there was their Pitchfork in addition to Skinner�s Ginger Tosser and Butcombe. Ciders are well represented with Thatcher�s Dry, Thatcher�s Traditional, Mendip Magic and Stowford Press.

All in all a great pub, and well worth seeking out.

Treading a fine line between unspoilt and neglected, this boozer is a tremendous survivor. Never mind the gripes about elderly glasses and outside toilets (the horror!), splendid hospitality and decent ales and ciders are what you come here for.
