“Old fashioned wet only pub with a great selection of beers at super prices. Pleasantly refreshing atmosphere without the yob aspect so people talk to each other not phones and with staff who seem genuinely pleased to see you and are proud of their pub. Lovely place to be.”
- Fiona
“Wonderful, traditional pub. Dog friendly. Gorgeous, well kept, small courtard garden, with covered areas. A small car park. A nice, quiet location, quite close to the town centre, and not far from the bus station, train station, Sparrows nest and Denes beach. Great choice and value. Lovely staff and clientele. Top juke box, pool table and darts board. Occasional events.A real gem.”
