Have to agree with some of the other posters, of all the nicholsons pubs we visited on the Dick Whittington ale trail, this was probably the worst, the real ales although not off were not great

Fantastic pub, now with 7 hand pumps offering a constantly changing range of Real Ale, ( managed to try 10 different ales over the weekend). The landlord really seems to care about the beer. The bonus of a bar billiards table out the back.

Fantastic REAL pub well looked after range of Taylors Ales. For a day out get the steam train from Keighley as the buffet car serves real ale on route. I had to go all the way to oxenhope, the back to Haworth just to make the most of facility.

A country resturant, rather than pub now. Food is excellent but not alot of room if you just want to sit and have a quiet Pint.

Bar area looking a bit shabby, beer questionable.
Right next to the Canal this place does have a lot of potential. But need major spend on re-furb
20 Mar 2005 15:17
The best Wetherspoon pub in Milton Keynes for its choice of Real Ales, huge seating area makes it comfortable, when busy, but can lack atmosphere when not so busy.
The best pub for any Footie supporters visiting MK-Dons/Franchise FC or whatever they call themselves this week. Its only 3 minute walk from the National Hockey Stadium
27 Feb 2005 20:34
