Unlike wolvesfan (posting 5 sept 2010) I have no problem with Hop Back beers but agree a guest ale would be a good addition. As it was the beers were in excellent condition. I do agree with wolvesfan the new tenants, Becki and Tim, are enthusiastic and have already made improvements to what had become rather dreary.
We had a good Sunday lunch. It was the first day they had begun serving food and while there were a couple of minor teething problems they did not spoil a pleasant experience. I have no doubt that we will be back on a not infrequent basis.

Looking for a place to meet and have Sunday lunch I popped in to this pub Saturday afternoon with some trepidation having read the earlier postings. It was clear however that it was under new management (of only 2 weeks). Made to feel welcome & valued, lunch booking taken efficiently. Came back Sunday & had excellent lunch with plenty of good quality veg. Butcombe & Pedigree on handpump & both in fine condition.
Atmosphere welcoming , d�cor good, loos clean. Well worth a call in.

The Village, Salisbury
The upgrading is very clearly underway with walls being stripped & the cellar bar revitalised. Gents toilet is way better than I have ever seen it. No change in the beer (thank goodness). It is good to see an old favorite getting the care it deserves.
