Good meeting point for yesterdays football trip. The usual good range of beers available, nice pint of Dark Star Hophead and the excellent all day breakfast for £5.95. Reasonably busy and buzz of chatter at 11:45 yesterday. A good pub providing excellent choice in what is a bit of a difficult location. Not like most "station" pubs. Lots of old railway memorabilia around. You need a code from the bar to get to the toilets though.

As stated before,a great pub for the real ale drinker.It's very unusual for a Fuller's pub to have guest beers and this is a welcome change from that policy.The only thing wrong with this pub is that the staff seem to be very miserable.No welcome.No hello.So come on you lot behind the bar,cheer up a bit.It will make the Hophead taste even better.Footnote:Having said that,I went there a couple of days ago and the staff were really frienly.Perhaps they were having a bad day before. Further footnote: went in there yesterday(16-01-07) and happiness was abound and whats more important the Hophead and Castle Rock's Harvest pale were perfection, if it carries on like this i will happily become an alcholic!!

Originally called The Head of Steam. This was a mecca for real ale drinkers and it was thought that the takeover by Fullers would be bad, but having visited both before and since the change, personally, i can say that Fullers have kept up the good work. They have their own range of real ales plus a good selection of guest ales.
