“Great small pub, dog friendly and great bar staff. Asked about different ipas and let me try before I bought one”
- Samantha Heath
“Wine and beer was nice, however, very poor service, refused to top up low levels on pints of beer and had poor experience being agreesively/intimidatingly kicked out by bouncer 10 mins after last orders. If there is a strict time limit to closing then make last orders earlier.”
- James Varney
