Probably the best pub in Douglas, I was last here in 2015 and returned a couple of times on my recent visit to the Isle of Man.

The main bar area has quite a few locals and has TVs showing sports news. A real fire creates a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Dogs are also allowed. There are 3 other small rooms. My second visit this time led me to the Blackburn Rovers-themed room which can be found on the way to the toilets. It can be a bit cold and musty in here, with an inevitable smell emanating from the toilets. However, it may hold interest to a football fan.

Bar staff were friendly here and being a Bushy's pub, you'll find Bushy's Bitter along with other Bushy's beers and some guests. For my visits they had Bushy's Star Of India & Lonesome Pine, Birmingham Blonde Brummie & Hopback Taiphoon. There are also a couple of Weston's Rosie's Pig ciders on handpull - the original and the Strawberry & Cucumber version.

The staff are very friendly and on the ball! It's one of the few places with decent music. On holiday we tried lots of pubs but always found ourselves back in the Rovers Return! :D Can i have another free Bushy's sticker please? I lost mine and my tool box looks really bland with no stickers. :'(

Back Street pub with a good selection of real ales. Had Prospect Blinding Light and Westerham Brambling Cross, both in good ondition. Has an outside seating area for smokers.
