Vine Hotel, Stafford

Refurbished hotel bar, run by Marston's but without any obvious branding. Part opened out into a 'L' shape, with various seating areas but little remaining character. Let down by staff blatantly looking to close up early on a Sunday night. Also, just one of the four handpumps was in operation, dispensing Pedigree at £2.80. Overall something of a disappointment since it looks at interesting place from the street.

Called in on the 5th of March mid afternoon not many in must have been busy earlier had that food smell had a pint of Dirty Tackle not as good as the Joules i had in the last pub but will call back
