| Pub number 2 of the 3 wanted to visit on the way to the station. This is an open plan pub at the top of the High Street. It's just gone 10pm and it's half full with a mainly young crowd. There are lots of wood panelling on the walls and it's a fairly grotty looking to be honest. No ales except Courage Best on tap, it was alright but nothing to right home about. A garden out the back and a large car park to the side, that's about it for this place. lezford - 21 Sep 2014 21:15 |
| Fair play to the pub that it was packed out when I went - around 6:30 on a Friday evening! Seems like very much a locals pub. I had a Courage Best which wasn't great. I also asked for half a Coke which seemed to very much annoy the Barmaid! so in short: very rude service. The weather was fairly warm on the day so we when out into the Beer Garden - it's a complete dump with broken chairs. I won't be going back. MJEllis77 - 27 Apr 2014 16:16 |
| Not much has changed since the last review. 4 hand pumps but only two in use for Youngs Special (�3.05) and Courage Best. I tried the latter which was a bit bland and cost �2.90 bjbrummiejohn - 3 Oct 2011 12:49 |
| This inter war mock Tudor pub is quite presentable and appealing without being anything pretentious. The fully carpeted interior is quite well laid out with an unobtrusive pool and darts area one end behind a partial screen. The d�cor is neat and tidy with dark paneled walls, beamed ceilings, brick fireplaces and a collection of plates balanced on ledges like a fairground shooting range. There are 2 well positioned plasma screens with the usual diet of football and a spacious patio at rear. 3 reasonably priced and perfectly drinkable if rather unspectacular Ales available (Speckled Hen, Courage Best and Bombardier). One gripe is that the hand pumps are badly positioned on the bar so that they face into the the pool/darts section rather than into the main body of the pub. Service and atmosphere fine on both my recent visits and whilst it is generally geared to the locals, it is quite handy for the Greyhound stadium and the VCD football ground and in my opinion is one of the better options in town along with its next door neighbour, the Crayford Arms.
