user reviews of the Shakespeare, Harbury
please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Harbury no longer has as many pubs as it once did (the Old New Inn has now closed) but the Grade II listed Shakespeare (some of which dates back to the C16) seemed from the outside to be the most characterful so in I went after my circular walk to Bishop's Itchington and Chesterton. Service was professional rather than friendly but my pint of Purity Pure UBU was very good indeed (and only £3.70) and I would have happily have stayed for several more had it not been for my car parked outside. Other handpulls were Timothy Taylor Golden Best and Sharp's Atlantic which I didn't try. Furnished in mostly a modern country style with a lot of steel blue paintwork (some of it getting shabby). paul_d102 - 9 Jan 2022 16:30 |
The Shakespeare was the second of our pubs in the village of Harbury. Unfortunately the best of 3 pubs in the village we tried appears to be the one not listed on here - the Old New Inn. Walking into the Shakespeare, I thought at first that I'd wondered into the village shop, as there was a decent range of sauces, jams and chutneys. But just beyond was the bar. Sharps Doom Bar, Purity Mad Goose & Slaughterhouse Saddleback were the 3 ales. We sat in a nice little table in the window. But this does seem to be predominantly a diners pub. blue_scrumpy - 4 Jul 2016 21:01 |
Good pint of Old Hooky bigbeermonkey - 7 Nov 2010 19:29 |
A good selection of real ales were available for the bitter drinker, customers and staff appeared friendly. I liked this pub would have loved to stay for a pint but when theres no MILD I always walk out. No pubs in Harbury have MILD but just down the road at Ufton the "White Hart" had a very good pint of Theakston cask MILD. Stus.search.4.mild - 10 Sep 2006 23:20 |
