Profile information
I like three types of pubs.
I like pubs that are a place to go in the evening to drink, where the people there generally know each other but make the odd passer by welcome. They sell nuts and crisps if you're hungry. The bar staff know you by name and if you're daft or drunk enough to leave something behind it'll be waiting for you behind the bar when you next go in. The kind of place you can pop in on the way home and have a chat and a pint.
I like pubs that pride themselves on serving a good range of proper ale. They care about the pint they are serving you, the people there appreciate a nice pint and the landlord appreciates customers who know what a good beer is.
I like pubs that serve great food, not gastropubs that have a flash sounding menu and charge an arm and a leg, but a pub that sells restaurant quality food in a relaxed atmosphere.

Ok, it's open quite late, late enough for me anyway. Sometimes the music isn't awful, and drinks are quite cheap - although best to stick to bottles or shots as the draft lager is usually undrinkable. If you want somewhere to go lateish that has a bit of life to it then it does the job. Check your change at the bar though.

A good honest pub selling good honest beer. No more, no less.

Now called the Betsy Smith. Still does the pizza deal at lunchtime and the big screen has gone. Very much a wine, cocktails and snacks place for couples during the week. Wouldn't go there for a night but a nice addition to the high road as somewhere to take a partner for a wine and a slightly upmarket snack.
