Good for sport - but the governor has had a highly successful personality bypass.

I agree that the food isn't that good here. I went in on a saturday afternoon and had the burger. Pretty much the same standard as you would get at Burger King at half the price. If the publican is only serving food to supplement wet sales then at least put some effort into it.

Look! stop whingeing on about food, it's a bloody pub, if food is your bag, then go to a cafe with your screaming kids and eat.
Remember this: if the publican had he's way, he would'nt serve food at all, it's only done to supplement the loss of wet sales, and the extortionate rents the brewery charge.
Im fairly sure that if he could afford to employ gordon ramsay to prepare food for the lazy people who cant do it for themselves, then i'm sure; that just to appease the gastroites he would, he's a PUB landlord for christ sake Not a restraunteur, get over it.
Gastro pubs and the no smoking policy will be, and is the demise of our local as we know it........and it's your fault.

A mediocre pub with OK food if you can't get in anywhere else. Staff were not stretching themselves to be polite by any means, service was awful. Have alot to learn in order to run the food side. Would not recommend and will not be going back. Agree with beersniffer they should stick to the usual rubbish under rated pubs do in order to attract customers.

Beer was not too great(Abbot)although average price -�2.95 for a premium ale. Food service was dreadful. We ordered 5 things - two baguettes,two kids meals (sausages and fish fingers)and a ham egg and chips.Not exactly taxing.The food came out in three different goes, spread out over 15 minutes, resulting in the first person almost finishing before the last had their food.Should stick to Abba nights and wet t-shirt competitions.

Friendly staff and ok beer. Enjoyed sitting outside on south facing tables. Might have been a seven apart from the chicken mayo baguette (very strange synthetic taste) "but for �3.95 what do you expect".

Its got a great karaoke nite on Thursdays, lots of friendly people, manager is great. The food is also good but my favourite reason for going has to be the karaoke nite!

Was great in the last months as Hogshead under the managment of Bernie. after the refit went steadily down hill - a pity as another one bites teh dust.
|
Just to let you all know that there is karaoke there every Thursday night. Cracking entertainment for all.

Full of chavs??? I think they must have this place confused with Yates round the corner of they are a bitter and twisted Parrot punter. One of the busiest pubs in the area at a weekend. I've been going there for about three years, nevr been any trouble.

Nothing good about this place. The beer (Greene King) was poor and it was full of chavs.
