| Recently re-opened pub with late opening hours with heavy handed door staff and aggressive clientele. E10 - 15 Nov 2013 16:58 |
| From the outside, this looks to be a traditional old boozer at the end of Stony�s traditional High Street. Inside, it seems as though someone started a gastro-pub makeover, but didn�t quite finish it. They�ve painted the walls in the obligatory shades of brown and cream, and there�s plenty of pine wood around the bar, and a curious pine counter in one corner with a refrigerated display unit on top full of bottles of water. Seating is round tables and leather armchairs. Other than that it�s rather more basic, with rough wooden boards on the floor and a few stools around the bar, where the only punters were gathered. The menu is decidedly un-gastropub like and besides a selection of burgers and an all day breakfast served until 7:00pm offered such delights as a chip bap and a fish finger sandwich. But I guess with most of the mains being around the �3 - �4 mark, you can�t expect too much. There are a couple of tables out at the front, and a plasma up on the wall, although this was just playing a radio station. A large blackboard advertised a forthcoming quiz night. Unfortunately there were no real ales on tap, and even worse, the only cider was Strongbow. Against my better judgment I was coaxed in to having a pint of this as it was on offer at �2.75, compared to �2.10 for a half. I overheard the barman discussing with the locals what could be done to attract more customers in, and he came up with a fancy cocktail bar in the corner with some jazzy lights on it. Errr...., how about selling some beer? You are a pub, aren�t you? Blackthorn - 21 Dec 2011 21:34 |
| The new owners totally refurbished the pub in May 2006 and as a result made a massive improvement. This is now a quality place to drink. They are the only pub in town to close at 1 a.m at the weekends and they create a fantastic party atmosphere. During the week it's a good place to chill and have a few beers. There's a good range, including San Miguel on tap. Finally, they've recently made it over 21's only so you get a mature environment in which to drink. andrew oliver - 23 Jan 2007 15:05 |
