Nice old brick building, with and strange L shaped bar, with several small rooms around it; one with half armchairs and a piano, another with wood pew seats and stools, with copper type tables, another with wood tables. Beer terrace as well. I wasnt keen on this place when i entered, i stood aside to allow the locals out the front door and was blanked. The landlady made no rush to serve me and left my drink for the barmaid to finish off and charged me more than the barmaid wanted to! However, it started to grow on me. The landlady was clearly busy and the barmaid was really friendly, wishing me well as i left. The local chap up the bar softened to the 'townie' as well. The background music was decent and not blasted at you. The beer was usual stuff, with Abbots and Bass as the real ales; the Bass was fine. I would visit again.
