| Friday 10 August, later evening. Having heard good things about The Tump, I went in with my daughter for a pint and some food. Entering into what we found to be a raucous bar area, we stood there looking hopefully for a member of staff, while a gaggle of loud and lumpen locals were served ahead of us by the one person apparently in attendance. We stood, and stood, unable to attract any attention. If the bar girl did see us, we must have been of less interest than the jokes of her mates and the sport on the big-screen TV. "Oh well", I said, "let's try the restaurant bit." So we weaved through the bar, down some stairs which a sign indicated led to the restaurant. Leaving the noise behind, a doorway with a handful more stairs down brought us out into a dimly-lit, low-ceilinged dining room, containing maybe twenty dark wood tables laid out with cutlery and wine glasses. Just one of these was occupied, by a late-middle aged couple apparently on their dessert course. They did not look up. The silence here was as eerily deafening as the bar had been literally. So we waited. And waited. I coughed politely. Nobody appeared, even to check on the couple -- who, I now realise, might in fact have been stuffed and mounted, just to make the place look less deserted (on a Friday night, remember). That would fit right in with the atmosphere. I tentatively moved towards the other entrance, presumably to the kitchen; a solitary balloon proclaiming 'Happy 50th Birthday' floated gently away across the floor at my passing. My peering into this brighter area revealed no living human. I cleared my throat again, to no avail. "Excuse me!" I called in that quiet way one might in a library (a library would have been noisier). Nothing. Wait. A little louder: "Anyone home?" Silence. Wait. "Shop!" As if by magic, no shopkeeper appeared. We left. So I'm afraid I can't tell you anything about the quality of the beer or the food. EarlOfEmsworth - 23 Aug 2012 15:23 |

| Its the TUMP Inn actually. Large roadside pub, good reputation for pub food and the beer is OK. JimmyRibble - 18 Jan 2010 14:09 |
