“What a great pub. We were stopping at the Travellodge so did a pub crawl of all the pubs in the town and came back to the best one (in our oppinion). Very competitive prices, great friendly staff and the locals were great fun and we had loads of banter. If I lived in the area, this would be my local! Give it a go, you won't be dissapointed.”

“bad attitude towards older people who enjoy swinging parties and dogging activities. we were only swapping photos and videos of our fun nights when we were asked why so much noise? we explained we were swapping photos and videos to which the young bar worker asked us to leave as "we don't like that kind of thing in here" considering the majority of people were about 20+ we thought they'd be fine with it but obviously not. we won't be back.”
