| A pub that was renovated in the 1930s and untouched until 2007, featured as CAMRA's national inventory pub of the month in Oct 2007 it closed not long afterwards. Now thankfully reopened with modernisation but the wood and stained glass remains largely untouched. The dining room has sadly been taken over by a pool table in spite of another being available at the other end of the pub. The furniture fits in with the decor and perhaps some of it is the original 1930s makeover stock, most of it is "hard" seating. The outside Gents, accessed via a covered corridor, has been left alone with its massive ceramic urinals. TVs showing sport at both ends, footy one end and racing the other while I was there. Beers are still Tetley cask, John Smiths cask , and Taylors Golden Best which, in spite of its almost arctic temperature, was excellent. Usual kegs plus the now rarely seen Murphys stout. This Saturday lunchtime most of the customers were drivers from the local frozen food warehouse almost all drinking John Smiths Cask at �1.90 and why not in these credit crunch days if your taste buds can stand it. The guvnor knew his stuff about keeping beer apart from the right temperature to serve it at, lager temperature is not good for ale, but other than temperature in very good condition and my pint was topped up without me mentioning a word All beers were served in the correctly named glass. Altogether a class act and worth a visit, just a short diversion off the A1M junction 48. anonymous - 24 Jan 2009 19:52 |
