| Struggled to cope with the onslaught of Rod Stewart's barmy female army and perhaps should have had a couple of extra staff on. We got served four decent beers and the food order didn't take too long but bar service on both occasions was around the fifteen minute mark. Credit to the bar staff for trying to serve everyone in turn. GazzaTheBeerMan - 11 Jun 2019 16:40 |
| The Good Beer Guide throws up these random entries. You wouldn't think for a minute that this chainy looking pub would be in it. However, there was a good choice of around 6 real ales on and my wainwright was superb. Not sure the decor, ambiance or experience is my cup of tea but worth a visit for the tick.

| Martinsh spot on. Plenty of ales but service needs looking at - prob dropped in at the wrong time. Blastbeat - 11 Jan 2016 10:53 |
| I’m surprised I’ve not reviewed this place before because I’ve been going here on an occasional basis for a while (whenever I can tear myself away from the lovely Polly in Wetherspoons !). Anyway, this is a bit of a mix of a place. They usually have 7 or 8 real ales on tap, almost always wuth something interesting that you are tempted to try. They frequently have locally brewed Brough ales. However, they aren’t cheap – even with 10% CAMRA discount. Then there are the mass-market aspects of the place to consider. There are 5 large screen TVs showing sport (thankfully usually with no sound), the furniture is somewhat dilapidated, and the clientele can be dubious. It tends to get very crowded and rowdy at weekends. The other overriding impression is of how short-staffed the place is. Often there are only 2 people running the whole place (one behind the bar, and the other delivering food orders). So although they try their best, you can often have to wait a considerable time to get served. Incidentally, there is a standard pub-frub type menu. I’ve never eaten here, and have had missed reports about it. 6/10 – sometimes worth braving it for a decent beer. Martinsh - 18 Mar 2015 23:05 |
| Visited for the first time, on a Saturday when Wolves were not playing. we were impressed with knowledgable barmaid who seemed to know the history of all of the breweries' ale available. I had Broughs Springfield and my partner liked the Enville White. Mixed crowd, TV's on without sound (good). Outdoor seating/smoking area tatty but apart from that, worth a visit for well kept reasonably priced beer. greyhead - 15 Sep 2013 18:02 |
