From the outside, this just looks
like another corner pub but as you enter the stained-glass windows and wood
carvings instantly makes this establishment stand out from the crowd. This
beautiful pub was packed to the brim with CAMRA members; and the poor bar staff
didn't know which way to turn on their island bar. There were people peering
over every corn r and through every hatchway, as people tried to taste as many
of the seven ales on sale as possible. The pork pies were also attractive, and
those that bought one were guaranteed a seat at the bar as others made space
for them to eat them! I managed to find a perch on a high stool near the window
while I waited for the others to arrive, and the beers that I tried were in
excellent condition. It's a shame that this pub is currently closed over a
rent dispute with the owners.
