Saturday night and the pub was dead. Sofa was old and ripped,the carpet had seen better days.Beer was OK so was the servise. My first and last visit here.Such a shame as its a lovely old building.There was the smell comeing from the toilet into the bar area. I was very disappointed as been past this pub many many times.

This is a great local pub with a long standing history, the current land lady has just celebrated her 25th year. Atmosphere can go up and down but generally good especially when live acts are performing at weekends. It's quieter mid week. It would be nice if there was food available but there is a kebab/ burger bar in the carpark. Plenty of parking and occasional special events in the summer such as family days, Easter egg hunts etc and of course the staff are football mad so always ready to support local and national treams. New Year is always a good night.

Jacky Ower is stupid. banned for 3yrs cause we cracked open 2 beers(offi) after buying 2 strongbows as no beers on tap due to shortage, which cost more. You are disrespectful and you need to go,But we brought 2 ciders which we don't drink.stupid landlady. Stay away. Change landlady. You will get more business

I like this place, has pool, the football on TV, nice beer, Claire the barmaid (an old friend of mine) and Jackie 'the governor', worth a visit.

Look the staff have never been anything but friendly and some customers may appear rough but ive never had a problem in here, despite the tired surroundings this is not a bad pub but its tough to give more than 2 stars as the toilets are absolute kazis, there's people in africa saying damn wheres a hole in the ground when you need one. You would also think that tired pub equals dirt cheap prices and then you accept the surroundings but not so here either. There are two good pool tables, good luck finding a non broken cue though... A couple of years ago i remember buying a bag of quavors and on a whim looked at the expiry date, was about 18 months out of date lol

Never judged. Never had any problems. Got plenty of books of you want to sit, read, and not be bothered. Make sure you go to afro Joe's for some jerk chicken goodness.

Staff were nice but didn’t seem to know what they were doing. Fingers and hands all over the coffee glass rim. Three things I asked for they didn’t have. Had to ask for a glass for the bottle of lemonade (which was third choice). Sat outside because we had a dog and to enjoy the sun - in a cloud of staff Vaping in the doorway next to us and smokers the other side. Never returning, plenty of other places in high st that know how to run things properly.

Nice clean place, but that is all I can say was good. The worst pie & mash I've ever had, the meal was only luke warm, and the pies were under cooked, there was a group on another table that complained about their meal being cold, and then walked out leaving the food on the table. This was my first time in this restaraunt and will be my last.

We arrived here for a nights dinner as a cuple , although the food was ok and the service was ok to start . The kitchen forgot to cook our mains waiting over an hour and a half , the tables around us eventually left , leaving us asking for our mains several times . Our waitress left and other staff were not attentive , they smashed a bottle of pepsi over our clothing and never apologized. The experience was poor , if I was prezzo I would be discussed.

Top pie and mash. Have local pie and mash shop near me ,but travel to George's because it's really tasty pies! Is a cafe that does vast range of food options
