ok spoons real ale quality good but on a weekend there is never enough bar staff on and they have put loads of tables n chairs right by the bar which is crazy on the weekends just not enough room by the bar area.

still know as the smelley wellie in desprate need of some windows that open or air con as gets so busy some of the prices can be way over the top for the ales,decent choice ,although not enough dark ales quality can be abit flat at times.

have been in here many times over the years but lately service seems to be a lot better seems to be more staff , and the quality of the real ales have been very good indeed a new manger maybe?,one night we came back in after we had been to a show to have some more of a great dark ale we had earlier but it had all gone ,on chatting to the duty manger he said he was about to put 2new ales on and wood see if he could find a dark one to put on for us now thats what i call first class service.

great building well worth a look but real ale is so flat ,if it has a head it last 1minute same every time we go in and when ur paying sky high prices we expect a top quality pint service can be very hit and miss in here to .

good choice of ales but getting expesive for the ales
as no windows that open can get a bit smelly in there and why have bar stools hogging the serveing area on busy weekend nights?
