“It's an ok bar. Service is decent. Beer is good. But the toilet stalls lack locks and toilet seats.”

“Very good pub, quick service, and good staff. Great value for money.only one criticism,if it's quite on a night time they close the bar early,so you can walk down about,9 pm, and its closed”

“Clean and fresh interior, looks great. Has a lot of screens for sports & horse racing. One plus is Ladbrokes & David Pluck bookmakers around 50yrds away so can nip across to stick a cheeky bet on between races and return back and have a pint”
