Now closed-up (Aug 2010)

Definitely not a gay bar, and definitely not a nice atmosphere. A lovely old building which, apart from having no real ale, should be a really good town centtre pub, isn't. The bar is a proper pub bar with wooden floors and no frills - a spit-and-sawdust place without the sawdust.
The clientele are unpleasant - the topics of conversation among the locals were mostly delivered at just over 100 dB and consisted almost exclusively of tales about sexual and belligerant acts they'd recently inflicted on other people. The average age was around 45, so it wasn't just lads' being lads.
I'll probably next try this place out of curiosity when I run out of new pubs to visit in Stafford or when it changes hands again.

Not a very nice pub. It's garishly overlit inside, with very loud music pumping out the jukebox. The clientele are fairly rough and ready, or have been on the occasions I've been in there. There are better pubs elsewhere in Stafford town centre.

A gay bar now. Myself and t'wife were turned away by the bouncer, saying "we're closed" when there was clearly some serious partying going off inside. I lived in Stafford in the 80s and The Nags was one of my favourite pubs; great jukebox and a cracking pint of Bass. Still, it's good that Stafford has an obvious gay bar. Whatever happened to the slightly disabled bloke who used to collect the glasses?

Excellent pub, off the main street in the town centre, recently refurbed to a very high standard, great atmosphere, friendly staff and management. Pool Table, Juke Box, Beer Garden, good pub food. Cheap offers most nights.
