No frills definitely and a true one-off. You'll drive straight past it first time, I guarantee - as there are no pub signs or - indeed - any signs full-stop, to let you know it is there. Two Weston's ciders (medium and dry) and a perry are served through a covered hatchway at the very good price of £3 a pint. If it's a nice day you can sit in the garden. If not, there's an old bakehouse with a fire to keep you warm. I was hoping to keep this review upbeat, but I think the following must be said: Any pictures you see of it online or in guidebooks do it a justice that, sadly, is a bit of a let-down once you get there, as I t's a bit too ramshackle, messy and greatly in need of a bit of tlc. I absolutely love places like this and wish to see them used and in a good state of repair that ensures their future use, but - save locals and people in the know - I can't see how it can carry on in the way it does without a bit of love and a fair bit of money being spent. littledrummerboy - 4 Mar 2017 20:47 |
Splendid, no-frills, no-nonsense cider house. One of a dying breed. Alehound - 21 Jul 2011 19:17 |
