Star and Garter, Colnbrookback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
As promised, I went to the Star & Garter Beer fest last weekend. I was not disappointed. 15 Ales;- milds, stouts, porters, golds, bitters, the lot. All from local breweries with the exception of two beers from Manchester. (It transpires the manager is from that place) Plus 5 ciders. The festival was held in an outside shed which has been named Festival Hall for the occasion. A tasty BBQ and great music. I went on the sunday so missed the Papa George band on Saturday, but enjoyed the Uk Ukes on the sunday. a very good band, great ale, good food and fortunately good weather. and all round great day.

As tmitch says rather understatingly, this is a great pub with a great selection of Ales. Unfortunatly I missed the Beer festival back in May, but there is to be another one over the second weekend in August, and a Cider Festival in September. I will be attending both of them. There are also some great musicians who play at the pub, how the manager gets them into the place and still have room for customers is anyones guess, but though its a small place it wont take many to get packed. Definately worth visiting frequently.

I've now visited the Star and Garter and found the drink and atmosphere ok. Another pub I will visit again.

New management. Too soon to post a full review but the Courage Best was served perfectly. At �2.95 a pint the price was great too.

The pub is open again, but I've not had a chance to visit it yet - I'll post a review once I do.

It's shut now (end June 2009) - anyone know what's happening to it?

Another traditional pub, good atmosphere, friendly bar staff, and customer base mainly locals. Real ale of good quality, food looks good when I have observed orders coming from the kitchen, with generous helpings. A real warm and friendly atmosphere has always existed when I have visited.

This pub is long over due a kick up the backside, the bear taste disgusting due to the pumps never being cleaned, The landlord turns up once a week and washes the cellar floor with bleach,(stinks for days)The bar is small and a few of the locals take great delight in taking over the juke box, the novelty wears off in about half an hour,dont expect a decent glass of coke or lemonade, Its always warm and flat, not much fun if you fancy a short. The foods not up too much and the cook looks like she could do with a bath, All in all not much of a fun place and defiantly not a pub for the ladies. You�ve been warned???
