| Unremarkable; Brakspear in good nick though. cheesyal - 9 Apr 2010 00:15 |
| A building that flatters to deceive in that it would appear certain to yield a smart, stylish town pub that respects its long history, but upon entering it is immediately apparent that none of these assumptions are safe. I had always avoided it, and having given it a chance found that I had been right to do so. Bland, sapped of any character despite the charming exterior, and by-numbers food and beer. Oh, and did I mention the smell of rancid fat? No - well, it smelt of rancid fat. At least on my last visit which admittedly was some months ago now. But I fear from the last commentary that nothing has changed in the interim. In fairness, the Brakspear was in reasonable nick, but one ale - and a ubiquitous one at that - in okay form is not sufficient to draw me back, especially in a city blessed with numerous above-average outlets for food and drink. A classic case of potential, and that will not alter unless there is a change in ownership. TWG - 28 Aug 2009 17:11 |
| Popped in for a pint on a walk back to the station. Typical beefeater type interior. One real ale on (Brakspear) but pint served was so cloudy that we turned around and left. aquadave - 21 Aug 2009 11:05 |
| Avoid as if there was an Ebola outbreak inside. Bland, deserted and thoroughly dull. Moose82 - 15 Sep 2006 13:30 |
