Didn't heed my own advice and ordered the Young's Winter Ale which was a struggle to drink. Snarling_Mallard - 16 Dec 2019 13:46 |
In a sea of dross I can see how this place comes across as characterful but it used to have decent ale too and it now hasn't for a while. I don't risk the ale here anymore and went for the lager instead this time. Snarling_Mallard - 9 Apr 2017 17:47 |
Despite the last few reviews, I quite liked this pub. It's a Youngs pub tucked away off the main road. The ale range was the worst of the day - Youngs Ordinary & Special. But the barmaid appeared friendly enough and the pub has a nice feel, with its collection of salt and pepper pots and model boats. Only 3 or 4 other solitary figures were in. A comedy moment occurred when the barmaid asked these regulars if the flat cap behind the bar was theirs. One punter took one look at the flat cap in his possession and decided he had the wrong one and that the one behind the bar was his. Cue an exchange of flat caps. Either some kind of Ann Summers party for flat caps goes on here or the locals are in such a state when they leave each evening that they take the wrong caps. Not being a connoisseur, they all looked the same to me! Not sure about the purple frontage. But this was certainly an interesting place. blue_scrumpy - 25 Oct 2015 19:10 |
Arkleysquire is lucky. This is my local and I still haven't seen the new landlords. They seem to think you can run a pub without making contact with the customers, some of whom will go elsewhere and, no doubt, Youngs will again try to close it down as they did a few years ago.

Visited this pub on Saturday, new management team popped in for 5 minutes, apparently to check takings. Tired pub, no improvements from last time I visited about 5 years ago! One barmaid serving from 2000 till I left at 2200. As my school report used to say, "must try harder" arkleysquire - 11 May 2015 14:14 |
