The Kings Arms, Chapelhay, Weymouth

I LOVED this place. In retrospect it's got all that I hate about bad pubs. It's been said I don't like live music. That's not quite true. I like live music in the same way I like beer. I like it lots, but I'm fussy about what I'll have. There's a lot of scabby beer that I won't touch with a barge pole. The same is true of bands. So many try to cover up a lack of talent by increasing the volume. This place has decent music at a decent volume. It's clearly a "local pub for local people" - we were there the day after two of the locals got married, but we were made veery welcome. The ale selection mightn't be as much as in other pubs, but the two ales they had on were good. It's a "must visit" pub if ever you're in Weymouth.
