worth a flying visit.

ok, yeah there is trouble, yeah teh food is ok, the ale is awful, yet to taste a decent pint of ale there. very lively at teh weekends and then ok for a meeting place of an evening in teh week.
the staff are cool, although teh music does leave a lot to be desired. it is one of teh better pubs in town but it does depend on what you are looking for!

i have no idea how this has managed to get the rating! it is awful, no entertainment (no foreign staff do not count) and as for teh sheer price of teh place, you need a small morgage to get a round in!

ok, gotta admit i am biased here.
a lovely pub, log fire of a winter and a quiet little beer garden for the summer. Without a doubt it serves the best real ale in Alton itself (unless you are a fan of FFF which it doesn't serve).
come and have a pint, the locals are all easy going, and you do not find trouble here!

The Railway Arms, Alton
this is another easy going pub, a lot of the time, decent ale, if you enjoy FFF beers (go for teh stronger ales they have a better taste.)
again worth a visit, for a quiet one anyways.
