The Plough on the Green, Newbury

The Plough on the Green looks interesting on approach with a plough on the roof to the left and covered picnic tables across the front to the right where they wrap around to the beer garden. To the right of the entrance is some raised open plan seating and also doors at the rear to the well kempt beer garden. An L-shaped serving counter sits on the rear wall just to the left of the entrance. Standard and premium keg products were available, but only two of the five hand pumps were in use, drawing Brakspear’s Gravity and Ringwood’s Forty Niner. The left-hand side of the pub is made up of snugs, I counted five, one of which in the far left is sunken with a backdrop of books making it look Potteresque. The service was polite and the handful of Tuesday afternoon locals all seemed friendly enough, but as a non-local I’ll probably not be walking out of town to revisit when next in Newbury.
