Customer Review Summary
Reviewers come mainly for the Samuel Smith's beers at low prices, with several praising the real ales and bitters and one noting the beer is always kept well. Close behind is the no phones rule, which several say forces real conversation, like the good old days before technology. Another adds that there are no TVs and no music. Friendly staff come up repeatedly, including a landlady and the barstaff, and a few call the old style pub clean and tidy. The main reservation is the limited range. One reviewer says it is no good for anyone who likes an ale and cannot manage more than one pint of the cider reserves, and another notes there is no food apart from crisps. Reviewers also mention a pool table and darts in the back room, and a snug in the front room with an open fire.

“Great pub, with real characters. Beers spot on, and prices are good. I really enjoy a good pint and a rabbit here. No TV's, no music, just real ale and real people.”

“It's a Sam Smith pub, which is fine if that's what you love, but no good if you like an ale, and I personally can't stand more than one pint of their cider reserves. They've got a "no tech" rule in place which is great if you want a chat. Pool table there but didn't see it in action. Staff were lovely, toilets were clean, there's a bit of a step on the entrance.”
