The Bear, Horsham

Alan Winfield in his review from 10 years ago lists the beers as H&W 'Sussex', Badger Best & Tanglefoot. 10 years on and nothing's changed, with the 'Sussex' as dreary as ever. As for the pub, it has a loyal clientèle who can soon make this small pub seem crowded - that's not a bad thing: pubs should seem busy. The bar has a mix of stools and tables, and there's a small area to the side that can accommodate a group of a dozen or so (or several smaller parties). The Friday night attraction is a Karaoke disco, which may have you heading for the door or dashing into town (I chose the first option). My first visit in quite a few years - it was interesting to return and I expect to return in another few years.

The Bear is in the middle of Horsham. This is a plain looking pub from the outside but once inside it was a lot better with wood panelled walls and it had a cosy feel to it. There were four real ales on the bar we had a drink of K&B Sussex and this was a decent drink the other beers were Badger best and Tanglfoot there was also a seasonal beer on but i car'nt remember the name of it.
