Interesting old pub with 4 ales on. We had one from Anarchy brewing which was fine. Had a good chat with a few locals. All in all a decent place.

A peculiar old pub located in a back alley which seems to have expanded through all the buildings on one side. The ancient building features lots of wood panelling, but otherwise has been updated to give a modern feel. Handpumps offered Consett Red Dust, Anarchy Wor Beer, Bass and Doom Bar. A second bar down one end is open at busy times but is keg only. Despite its age, it is not what you might call a traditional pub but was pleasant enough on a weekday evening. Beware a DJ at weekends though.

not sure if this has been ruined since previous reviews but i found it somewhat disappointing to be honest. The bar as I walked in was suitably olde and crooked but everyone was watching horses on the TV. it had no real ale so I walked through to the other one. This had real ale but everyone was eating cheap pub food or watching horses on TVs. this room was modern and less interesting. the final two rooms, up and down the steps were full of people watching horses on both big and small TVs. I got a half of Bass and escaped. you can’t help but wish Sam Smiths or someone sympathetic got their hands on this place, it’s just a chain sports bar in an old alley.
