Not bad....quite cool infact. Nice sofa!

Good place, great beer (stella, san miguel), nice food. Can get seriously packed though so best to go early or late.

I was well dubious when this placed opened. Back in the day when the notorious Bears Head closed and became the Firkin, I hear people were pretty pissed off. It was a pansy pub! I was too young for the Bears head but found the Firkin one of the best pubs in Macc. I was obviously one of a 'new breed' of pansies to hit the town but when it in turn closed and became Kusch bar I felt the pain of the original bears head locals. My 'pansy' pub had turned into one the pansiest of pubs in existence and I was well pissed off.
After a slow start it picked up and is now one of the best pubs in Macc. Its still as pansy an oxford university botanist student's collection of potpourri pansies (especially with those multi-coloured lights on that big square on the wall), but it does sell san miguel.
Macc's pubs are pratically a meadow of wildflower nowadays so we might as well strip off and roll in it if its there. There's the occasional thorn bush to watch out for but as in the wildernerss you can usually spot them a mile off.
Kusch too is pretty good too.

It`s a great place to go for a quiet drink in the early evening, and it`s one of the new bars around Macc that`s helping to put our town on the map! JarBar down the road is just as good, and not filled with under 18s either.

They serve Hoegaarden!
Is that recommendation enough?

The landlady throws people out if they sing Christmas Carols - AT CHRISTMAS!!!
Strange place, attempting (and failing) to be classy in Macc.

Yeah, good idea - keep Kusch Bar for those of us who are a bit more discerning.

Go to the Litten Tree instead

Really nice friendly place, highly recommended and a cut above the other similar places nearby.

A vast improvement on the Firkin that previously occupied this spot.
