| Stunning exterior gives the impression of having a matching interior - wrong! Inside it has been given the "contemporary" make-over and is just not in keeping with the age and character of the building. OK the brewery perhaps decided that olde-worlde was old-fashioned but sorry if I see a pub with an exterior like this I expect it to be reflected indoors. Thwaites beers plus a couple of guests (my Kirkstall Pale Ale was good). Sadly the barmaid spent most of her time on the phone and only put that down to quickly serve me my beer. It seems such a shame that this is not a better pub as it is handy for the buses (next door) and the trains (5/6 minute walk) mcroyal - 3 Oct 2013 11:30 |
| A few real ales, and pub grub served unimaginitively in a listed building, though the requirements only seem to apply to the exterior. It's near the bus station so has time-killers making a half last on cold days etc. It's perhaps understandable that no one wants to take a chance on a makeover as it's not in the buzzy part of the city: there again, neither is the Fat Cat. eddybeer - 15 Mar 2013 22:51 |
| Yes, the exterior belies the blandness of the interior. The beer was OK but no more than that. vladtheimbiber - 22 Nov 2012 19:26 |
| Stopped in on the way up the road because of the eye catching exterior and had an acceptable half of Thwaites Oktoberfest. The barmaid was friendly and served us quickly, but before long we moved on to The Devonshire Cat. littleredone - 26 Sep 2010 15:18 |
| Beautiful exterior, but that's all one can say. Dull and lifeless inside with Thwaites brews on offer, had the Lancaster Bomber which was just about drinkable. Interchange next door which is useful i suppose. nokegthanks - 4 Aug 2010 16:59 |
