Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out cheap beer, with one noting two half pints cost very little, another saying pints run far cheaper than at other pubs, and a third calling a Guinness perfect. Close behind is the recent refurbishment, described as a beautiful job, with a well-designed courtyard garden, less steep stairs to the toilets and new relaxing chairs. A group of three all had the Big Smoke burger and called it lush, and one regular cites cheap good food and the air con. Several praise the cleanliness, with tables cleared as soon as they were vacated and spotless floors and toilets. Complaints are fewer but specific. One reviewer says many people smoked and vaped in the courtyard despite no smoking signs, with staff carrying drinks past without comment and no ashtrays provided. Another overheard a nearby table report that a replacement dessert tasted of onions, and raised an allergy concern. One drinker found lipstick on the Prosecco glass and drank from the bottle instead.

“Cross contamination written all over it. Overheard lady sat near us say she felt bad exchanging a dessert (which I think is reasonable, if something isn’t to your standard). She’s gotten the new dessert, something in the dessert apparently tasted like onions. Which I’m assuming was the kitchen staff having a laugh or “one back at her”. To be honest I think that’s disgusting, as a person who is funnily enough allergic to onions this is unacceptable. I’ve overheard the two ladies talk about how weird it was because she was happy to pay for a new one if they told her to. It’s not like they make the cakes. All comes frozen. Ego of kitchen staff clearly hurt, putting people’s lives at risk. I own a restaurant, Appalling.”

“Such a great space to find somewhere to sit and drink. Good weather outside, chilled inside so really cant complain. Seated outside with a good pint. Pleasant staff, not loud at all and comfortable. Glass for the Prosecco had lipstick on so drank from the bottle instead. Guinness for me was perfect”
