Had a really good meal, all 3 of us, with great drinks at a clean table. Only hassle was had to replace the cutlery as it had dried food on it!

Went there with a load of friends - Nice Pickled Partridge pint. Didn't have food but it looked nice. Good pub. Did headstand on the bar - easy!

Second attempt at a drink at this pub. Last time it was closed on a Monday (see earlier comment) and this time, one of my party of 6 was below the age of 14. So 6 drinks and 6 meals lost - so I am giving up at this pub and, when in Dorchester, will always take my custom elsewhere.
We went to the Wetherspoons - Royal Oak and had an excellent meal and great beer at good prices.

The Crystal Palace Tavern, Bath
Well, I liked it!
Been there 3 times now. Beer always tasty. Good variety too and at the right temperature.
I have also eaten there 3 times and I thought the food was really really good.

Used in a recent Agatha Christie's Poirot AND was in one of the wonderful old 1960's Miss Marple films.

It was okay. Only on real ale on. Friendly barman BUT when the landlord walked past us, (only 2 of us in the pub), not a word. That tells me something.
I won't bother stopping again.

When will pubs learn? If they see a stranger at the bar, at 11.30 a.m. waiting for a drink, why carry on cleaning the fridge glass, and not look up with a smile? Don't they know the first thing about meet & greet?

White Lion Hotel, Upton on Severn
You can always rely on excellent real ale, pulled sensitively. If you ask- you are lilely to be given a taste to help you choose. Always good guest beers, nice food and a comfy set of sofas. Parking round the back!

Visited on a hot lunchtime. Lovely cool interior. Quiet atmosphere. Food was tasty and rapidly served. Good value too. Beer was good. Shame the barman was displaying the fact he was not enjoying his job and would rather be out in the sun.

Lovely beer.
Great range too.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Haven't tried the food yet. If I do, and it's good, my rating will go up.

Brewhouse and Kitchen, Dorchester
Went there on a Saturday lunchtime.The food was AMAZING in taste, and excellent value for money.
The Stella was really cold and very tasty - but a shame there was a problem with the cellar and no real ale on. If I go again and the beer is good, I might increase my rating.

The Seven Stars Inn, East Burton
Good food, good beer, good view over trains too.
However, landlord never gives a friendly welcome. This is the area for improvement.

Great beer at great prices.
Friendly staff.
Best Wetherpoons I have visited.

Very friendly and helpful landlord. Good beer. Haven't sampled the food yet.

Pretty good pub. The beer served here is good AND it is always served in the right glass. I.e. Hopping Hare is served in a Hopping Hare glass.

Lovely atmosphere. Great pint of Hopping Hare. Haven't tried the food yet.

Really friendly landlord. Good beer, and beer garden. Not eaten there yet. My mark will increase if the food is good.

It's open again under new management.
3 really good beers. Hooping Hare was SO good.
Head chef really friendly.
Landlord really pleasant - couldn't do enough for us.
Really hope it works.
Looked at the menu- lots of good stuff AND the Head Chef (Lee, I think) says- if you want something differentr, just ask!
TRY IT !!
