My last visit on my tour of top pubs of Warwickshire was to
the Victoria in Rugby. This is a traditional cosy drinker’s pub that has
something for everyone. There’s an adjacent pool room for those in need, while
the main bar has a choice of ten hand pumps to choose from. There’s also a
selection of bottled Belgium beers on request. The seats are plush and cosy;
while the décor is in excellent condition with original printed windows and a
large selection of books. There’s even a snug for private conversations and an
extra room for meetings. What did let the pub down was the presence of a
gigantic TV in the corner; meaning that if any sport is shown then the whole
corner is pretty much out of action. The other thing to watch out for is the
barmaid. Although very friendly; it’s double price for a half pint. While it’s
a genuine mistake; it still affects the service, which is a terrible shame.
Still, the Wold Top and the Tring beers that I sampled were in excellent
condition. Well worth a visit.
