Stardust Motion at the Grenfell Arms, Maidenhead

This was a large red- bricked building with two large wood-panelled rooms; the second of which we didn’t explore as it was felt that it was set aside for diners. The drinker’s corner had plenty of small tables and bar stools in its centre with a few proper tables and chairs facing the window. It was occupied by a few astonished locals who were baffled with this invasion from our bus, but they decided to keep to themselves. The bar staff were quite young but seemed pleased to see us on what would have been a quiet late Saturday afternoon. The bar was central to the pub and was made to serve both rooms at the same time. Being first of the bus, I had a good chance at the first shout on the beers available; and went for Motion by Stardust; a delicious dark beer that was kept very well. Impressed by the quality of the first beer, I decided to sample another. Nice arse by the way.
