| Well there goes a good pub. This place was sold a few months back. The previous owner knew how to get the punters in and served a really good pint. Always a good priced real ale or two. There was up to 8 televisions in this big bar for punters to watch the horses , football, eastenders or whatever without bothering others. Food was good and troublemakers were never allowed. The new owners have decided they know better than the big money they had to pay to buy the place. Gone are most of the TV's. Previously barred punters now allowed back. Beers not well kept. No longer a friendly place to go. I can never understand why people buy a pub that is making really good money. And they obviously had to pay a lot to get it. Then change the winning format. Makes no sense to me. Todrungren - 1 Feb 2012 23:35 |
| Was about to enter the pub when one of the smoking fraternity outside the pub, aimed a flying kick at four passing gay women, accompanied by abuse, much to the amusement of the "security staff" at the pub. Decided not to go in - obviously some of the inhabitants don't aspire to standing upright and stop their knuckles dragging on the floor. JBGatelad - 19 Sep 2011 18:04 |
| Still going strong. Serves a decent pint at reasonable prices. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. Plenty TV's to watch sport and the GG's. Outside area in summer can be a bit of a suntrap. droggs - 10 Dec 2010 22:31 |
| Used to go here for a cheap drink or two a couple of years back in I lived in Edinburgh. Was always busy on Saturday nights and never saw any trouble. Bar staff were fairly friendly. Hope it's still going strong. irish_wine - 9 May 2009 22:47 |
