Very dark pub which was full of tourists eating fish and chips during our visit, which meant that the pub smelled like a chippy. Looks very old, but how much of it is original is anyone's guess. Only Doom Bar available from the 4 handpumps, but surprisingly this was in good nick and was as good as this pretty ubiquitous beer gets. Next time we're in the area we'll miss this one out though.

I think I’ll side with Steve C rather than Sam Hodgkinson, you really have to be clueless to mess up keg beers like Guinness or John Smiths, clean the lines; wield a spanner; job done; it’s a skill free job. Lots of dark old wood and decorated and furnished in keeping. There’s a suit of armour in one corner, a pub pretty much aimed at the tourist market I would suggest. Six pulls, two in use with an odd and poor local beer and Doombar. Two T-bars of standard kegs. Nah.

Great pub. Very dark which adds to the charm. Staff polite. Well kept John Smiths and Guinness. Good range available.
