| A traditional stone built community local, just off the Pontefract Road. There are two large rooms, with one leading into a raised area housing a pool table. D�cor and fixtures are all very comfortable, including some unusual narrow tables in the right hand room. There�s obviously been some modernisation over the years, replacement beams, for example, mixing with the originals. However, it remains cosily low ceiling-ed and not all the nooks and crannies have been ironed out. Two large stone fireplaces look impressive. Two real ales on offer: John Smith�s as the regular beer and Sharp�s �Doom Bar� as a guest. I�m not a fan of Doom Bar but it was fresh tasting and nicely cool- not cold. The friendly barmaid topped it up without asking. It�s hard to comment on the atmosphere of the place, as I called early afternoon on a hot weekend and nearly all the other drinkers were outside. One thing that definitely grated was the R&B music drifting from the pool room at high volume. There is a sizeable beer garden to the rear of the pub, but it needs more seating and lacks a little TLC. On balance, a comfortable, if unremarkable, village local. I suspect I won�t be calling again. . aleandhearty - 15 Jun 2009 20:33 |
