| I can�t quite make up my mind about this pub. It�s split across several different floors and has a suitably shabby feel to it, with scratched and marked wooden flooring and vinyl seating held together with tape. The dark red walls create a slightly gloomy atmosphere and given the impression of something from the Victorian era perhaps, but somehow it doesn�t quite all fit together. They have open mic nights on occasions and the last one of these I went to a few months ago was actually very good. Although there were three hand pumps on the bar, unfortunately none of these were in use. I asked if there was any beer on, and the barman said not, without offering any explanation as to why. Somewhat surprisingly then, there was actually a good choice of ciders � Thatcher�s Gold, Thatcher�s Draft and Cheddar Valley, the latter two being served directly form barrels behind the bar. The Gold was a very reasonable �2 per pint. Blackthorn - 26 Aug 2010 10:07 |
| popped in last night , and they had Butcombe on , wouldn't stay there all night , but you could pop in on a crawl for one or two , customers quite fiendly , seemed to be a bit more intelligent youngsters /weekenders , than you normally get in a pub near the centre . bar man polite ,and friendly . beatles38 - 29 Aug 2009 08:57 |
| Popped in last night. there was no ale on which was a pity. But I would rather they kept good ale on at the weekend rather than tired ale on all week. Had a Leffe at a good price of �3.10 LukeD - 15 Jul 2009 07:37 |
| Friendly staff, plenty of seating room(including a bed!!!?), particularly excellent Butcombe and Staropramen. They also like to play full albums in here too in lieu of jukebox selections - which might put some off. I was treated to 'Exile on Main Street' last week getsit - 27 Mar 2008 23:32 |
