| The Everards Beacon Hill was quite good yesterday. Reverend James was the guest with Everards Sunchaser & Old Original also on sale. Although there's plenty of separate rooms to sit in, most were empty yesterday early evening apart from what might be called the main bar (which would be a "snug" in most other pubs) and it seems as if the Holly Bush might be just limping along. I know own websites might be a little outmoded but I never like it when pubs just have FB pages (but I do like it when they have no TVs). paul_d102 - 7 Jul 2019 11:37 |
| A top 10 pub in Warwickshire on this site. I've been before and found it wonderful - great beer, great pub, great food. Came on a Saturday at 13:25 and not single person in there - and that includes the staff. Eventually someone came to serve us but as they are "between chefs" we didnt stay. Strange that a pub so popular can be so sparsely visited. Some photos at my walking blog - http://mappiman.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/050316-alcester-return.html Mappiman - 6 Mar 2016 11:48 |
| Quiet and friendly with great beers. For me, the most enjoyable pub in alcester. A free pint for every 10 purchased! Muzzy - 8 Apr 2015 11:14 |
| If you are not an Everards fan then the beer choice is disappointing as it is limited to the house range. Nevertheless the beer is well kept even if the atmosphere is now sadly lacking. I have to say that I have always been amazed that the pub retained its place in the GBG given the previous owner appeared to have lost interest in the place some time ago and the beer was of dubious quality for a long time. Serving huge numbers of real ale does not make the beer good, a fact that local CAMRA members who voted this pub in the guide would do well to remember. markhone - 13 Feb 2015 12:53 |
