The Cricketers Arms, Leamington Spa

What a difference a change in landlord makes. Used to be a great local pub, off the beaten track from the main 'theme' pub trial. The welcome has vanished along with the food, all day opening, and 80% of the customers!!! With a bit of effort this could be a gem again but there seems a distinct lack of interest from those concerned. Sadly one of the few real homely pubs has turned into another back street boozer. I wouldn't even say it was as good as a working mens club!!!!
