A free house only selling Green King! Why?
What a shame. Otherwise, good pub in amazing position serving nice food at reasonable price.

I agree with Odbod plus oh so slow! Waited 45 minutes for our lunch order, then barman (landlord?) deep in conversation with another customer even while serving me. Despite good beer, overall a bad experience, not to be repeated.

The Earl of Normanton, Idmiston
Oh dear! Best beer and food in the area and the landlord and lady are retiring in a couple of months. Apparently has been bought as a going business, freehold, by someone with experience. Fingers crossed!

The Mucky Duck's been closed for several months. Enterprise have put it on the market, freehold. The Parish Council are trying to make it a community owned pub to prevent it being sold as a private residence: https://monxton.org.uk/black-swan/press-releases/

Excellent!
I'd love to "test" all 9 beers plus ciders but guess I'd be beyond a taxi home, I'd need an ambulance. Limitted to one pint as I was motorcycling.
Good pub with friendly staff and locals.
We'll be back.

Excellent evening meal on Saturday. Good to see the pub so busy.
Couple of good beers but far to cold - but then the landlord is French! Perhaps I should have had the wine.

Excellent Sunday roast, reasonable prices. 4 excellent real ales to choose from, as usual. A "proper" village pub. Under the previous landlord, this pub was awful & generally empty. Now, it's advisable to book if you want a meal - I'd guess that tells it all.

The Bourne Valley Inn, St Mary Bourne
Too expensive, especially with a "discretionary Service Charge" added!
Shame as otherwise it's good - service, beer, food all fine, as at plenty of other pubs in the area at better prices.
