White Bear, Devizes

Historic pub in the centre of Devizes stocking a good range of beers and ciders. There is a small public bar at the front, with a similar sized room off to the right, containing a fireplace full of board and card games. Beyond the bar is a further small room. On my Friday evening, the pub was busy with standing room only at the bar and almost all tables taken. Getting served was difficult in itself. Wadworth Henry's IPA is the regular beer. Guests were XT8 Porter, Wantsum 1381 & Black Prince, Moor Illumination & Portobello Central Line Red. Ciders were Weston's Old Rosie & Rosie's Pig Rhubarb & Tropical Ciders. Nice pub, only let down by how busy it was and also by the state of the gents toilets. Since Quinno visited, they have obviously become far from "snazzy". In fact, the urinals were taped off and not in use, leaving just a single cubicle, which wasn't quite enough for a full house. Other than that, this is certainly one of the best pubs in town.
