| Last pub of the day before getting the bus back to Cowes from the bus station over the road. I was expected good things. But I was disappointed. On entering, I got that "you're not from around here" look. The CAMRA website states that real cider is available. Unfortunately, the bar staff did not know what that was. So I had to enlighten them. I decided to turn to the ales. Not the most inspiring range - Fullers London Pride, Youngs Special & Goddards Scrumdiggity. I asked what type of ale the Scrumdiggity was and was told that all 3 were real ales - now they're attempting to enlighten me! Giving up at this point, I ordered a Scrumdiggity and endeavoured to exit as soon as possible. With a band setting up in one room and everyone else crammed into the other room, there was no space to get comfortable anyway. Very disappointing. Those in search for decent real ale and cider in Newport should head to the Newport Ale House, a few minutes walk away. blue_scrumpy - 23 Aug 2015 13:43 |
| Where do I start!?not a very friendly pub greeted by a man that has no manners who looked as he spent most of the night drinking,funny atmosphere and a little on the expensive side,but if getting served by a red faced moaning grump this is the pub for you!we went while the festival was on apart from that it's ok!

| Good quality ale served (3) but an uninspiring choice, as they are tied! pwilkins - 16 Sep 2011 12:22 |

| First time in Newport, so dropped in this recommended corner pub: friendly and helpful bar person; very tolerable Greene King IPA and Brains Rev James, and a friendly late afternoon/early evening crowd. zorrodp - 15 May 2006 19:43 |
