Large street corner pub with big front room with a hockey stick shaped bar.Usual distressed interior with minimal décor.16 keg craft beers and 4 handpumps with only Burning Sky -aurora and Siren -Vermont tea party.Dinky rear space for smokers.Good selection of beers and reasonably priced.

The Bear is a nice looking corner pub with some nice looking brown tiles on its frontage. Once inside there is a decent sized room to the front with the bar facing,there was a very large stuffed bear on the bar,the room is bare boarded with normal tables and chairs to the front right,there were black leather settees to the left,the rear area had a table tennis table. There was one real ale on the bar which was Portobello Star,this drink was slightly below par. The pub was almost empty on my Saturday afternoon visit but there was some decent background music playing. I thought this pub was a bit of a dissapointment. Pub visited 13/9/2014
