Old Star, Wormley

This is once again under new management. The new manager has been there for 5 months and I have been in about 30 times during that time (Different times and different days). I have seen him only once in that time. One of the regulars told me that he is never behind the bar, and would rather pay a young girl to do it for him. This has led to most of the regulars deserting the pub and going up the road to another pub. I'm surprised that Macmullens have not put a stop to this waste of money on unnecessary bar staff... The Manager makes the pub... and this pub has no soul because there is no Manager.

Just been back and it has all changed. New manager has allowed travellers to tke it over. Apparently a local had his hair set alight and the manager acted as if nothing had happened. Obviously scared of them he has chosen to do anything they ask at the expense of people who have been going in there for years. The new manager (Howard) is without control and this pub should be put in your diary only if you want a fight.

Visited this place for the first time in a couple of years and was pleasantly surprised to find that it no longer turns into a nursery school at 3:00p.m. (Over 18s only). Much friendlier than it used to be. I returned a few days later and the only anxious moment was when one of the regulars got upset when the barmaid turned the racing off to put some 2nd rate football match on. (She was out of order as there are several other televisions for people to watch). Beer was pretty good quality.
