We went there last night 16.12.2022 as our concert with Emma Buntin at the Barbican was cancelled. As it was near our guesthouse. We had a great time as they was a open mic night. Some very talented people sang there. The guy who runs the open mic night is called: Anthony Rivers Thompson was very nice to chat too and makes sure everyone has a great night. The bar staff was extremely accommodating. OK its not a posh place and not for everyone. But if you enjoy a laugh, cheap booze but a good pint. A laugh and a friendly atmosphere then this is the place for you.

A great local pub. Probably not one for tourists but having said that we were out of towners but weren't made to feel unwelcome. I got the impression most people in there were familiar with each other. We enjoyed a pint of Timothy Taylors Landlord and a pint of Staropraman.

This is a great pub. The building is large and spacious. There are several drinks on draft. Personally, I went for a berry cider, which was from the bottle, nice and cold and tasted great. There are some really nice new wooden tables and seating outside. The staff were attentive and helpful to myself and other customers. I would come back if I was in the area again.

Disgusting service, know how to make a young person feel unwelcome don't you? I can understand your prejudice but it was clear we were just two people you wanted a nice quick drink. Took forever to get eye contact let alone a drink, my friend might come back put personally I will be avoiding it like the bloody plague Oh and did I mention the overflown toilet?
