  “Amazing place full of history and character. Perfect place to grab a pint and hunt a few ghosts. Pair it with a cocktail round the corner at brainjar (fewer ghosts but amazing drinks), and you're in for a good night.”

  “Would have missed this if we hadn't had help from another Dave. Lovely old Thakstons place. Great beers, service and atmosphere. Pop in for a pint or two. Good outdoor seating area as well.”

  “Travelled from the North West to visit Hull taking 4 hours by train, but it was worth it to visit here, one of the CAMRA Hull heritage Pubs, plus other pubs too. There are great beers on offer here including Old Pecker on draught when we visited. A very friendly atmosphere created by the staff and customers alike. Highly recommended if you find yourself in Kingston upon Hull, to give the town it's Sunday name. It was a birthday doo and very much worth the effort and extended travel time.”

  “This place is just freaking cool. If you are not from England, it's just not like anything you have in many other places. I'm from Texas, and live in Dubai. I can promise neither places have anything like this! They don't really serve food, but have an amazing selection of beer. The history is phenomenal. There was actual plotting during the British Civil War. That's cool! The atmosphere is chill and full of locals. The bar tender really cared that you enjoyed yourself. The staff is friendly, but not in your face. If you are looking for a true English pub experience, you have to try this place. As an American, it's exactly what you hope for!”

  “If you can find this pub, which is part of the fun of visiting, it's a wondrous place. The pub is full of history (and most likely a ghost or two not sure we'd stay overnight!) a skull and swords discovered hidden and the plot room where the Civil War was apparently planned. Lots of character. Dating from the early 1500's and a pub from the early 1700's ... older than some well-known countries. A very good welcome and the chap behind the bar was able to offer lots of information. We were invited to look around the upper floors (staircase roped off at the bottom) into a function room (free hire) and other hallways and rooms. There is a small, ill-shaped door on the first floor with a date plaque of 1550. As we stood near, a huge fireplace, (2 sat in leather chairs within the fireplace) it was impossible not to think of and imagine the people that stood where we were, drinking and chatting down through 300+ years. Spooky and inspiring. A great range of beers, (including Old peculiar), wines, and spirits (including a peanut butter whisky!) This is a pub in Hull's Old Town that is very worthwhile a lingering visit and chat with locals who are, it seemed, happy to oblige.”

  “My favourite historic pub is the oldest one in Hull, and it’s full of character and history. The atmosphere is incredible, with dark wooden beams, low ceilings, and fascinating old décor that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. One of the most unusual features is a real human skull on display, which adds to the pub’s mysterious charm. It’s a truly unique place, and I absolutely love spending time there.”

  “Glorious ancient atmospheric pub. Bar staff claim to have seen apparitions. Like the Golden Fleece in York, this houses a human skull. Love the place.”
