| Nice corner terrace pub with two rooms, large bar and quiet lounge. I had a nice pint of real ale. alistair_cross - 28 Oct 2019 20:53 |
| A functioning pub or a tourist attraction for people who like WW1. Certainly unusual but after an initial visit, nothing would make me clamour to go back. Food OK - but I would pass on the Oatcake with various stuffings... Overpriced. Had black sheep on, but not on my side of the bar. Went for some seasonal xmassy beer which was decent.

| It’s a mark of how the beer and pub scene has changed over the years, that this place, once regarded as a fabled mecca, nowadays just seems a quaint curiosity. As previous posters have intimated, the whole interior of the pub is given over to period advertising – mainly around the period of the first world war. Furnishings also have a comfortable retro look about them. It certainly is an eye-opener for a casual visitor – one of the few places where people rightly want to take photos in the gents toilets ! Unfortunately, it is let down by the choice of beer. Or rather the lack of choice – just two unexciting national brands being available. I had the Bombardier Gold which, whilst reasonable wasn’t spectacular. Food is available, at least at lunchtimes. I didn’t sample any, but judging ny all the plates I saw being cleared away being empty, I guess the quality is good ! My latest visit was on my own, so I didn’t come across the “no groups” ruling. I did however, notice that the indoor advert for bar staff was mirrored by one outside advertising for customers ! 6/10 – 8 for pub interior, 4 for beer selection ! Martinsh - 16 Sep 2014 22:13 |
| Agree with NottsHammer. Went to this pub in April, Harvest Pale was decent however, noticing the signage on the way out stating no groups aloud forces me to give a low score. What's wrong with having groups come in? If they get rowdy you can ask them to leave. It also reminded me of a scene from waiting for god soco1982 - 11 Jul 2014 14:31 |
| Closed yesterday afternoon which seems strange when every other Chester pub was welcoming racegoers. wirraldrinker - 28 Jun 2014 15:09 |
