| Surprisingly in the 2018 Good Beer Guide. Beautiful Building and immaculate inside. With the exception of a small area in the middle, its setup for dining and I was the solo drinker on a damp Sunday afternoon. Three beers - Tring Ridgeway with the more ubiquitous Doom Bar and London Pride. The LP was in good condition but serving it in a branded glass showed a lack of dedication on the beer front. So did the £5.60 price tag, admittedly including a packet of Salt and Vinegar. Nice place but not what I would call a beer destination.

| Just come back from a three night day. Really enjoyed it. Food is good, particularly in the restaurant. Anyway, about the beer. Tring Brock is the resident Local Ale, it was OK. I prefer a head on my beer, it was a little on the flat side. The other resident ale is Abbot, which was OK. There was no guest on when we arrived on Friday. On Saturday Doom Bar was available, I no longer drink it since the brewery was taken over by Coors. nonecker - 1 Apr 2013 16:27 |
| Interesting old building with lots of nooks and crannies, although beginning to look a tiny bit dog-eared in places. As for the beer, it seems to be a Greene King pub - well kept Greene King granted but still an outpost of the evil empire. Didn't try the food, so defer to others on that score.

| As Mr Croft says, good beer and good food. It's a lovely old building with fine gardens. There's bar food as well as the restaurant. The portions are indeed large, but I am of the opinion that as long as the quality doesn't suffer, too much is never a bad thing. I like to occasionally cycle up here for lunch on a nice day. crunchysaviour - 4 Mar 2010 20:27 |
