A large, thatched, detached country pub, with patio front and back. In GBG 2010. The interior had three areas so to speak, in an L shape around the bar, with a games area en route to the rear patio, which contained darts and bar billiards. The decor is mainly white, with some red and exposed brick, with ceiling beams. There was a central small tiled fireplace, with fire and lots of ship and naval pictures and ephemera, including a massive model of the Cutty Sark - as well as a collection of beer mats highlighting the good ale choice. A few sofas gave a mix of traditional and modern to this place that should please everyone. The food was excellent and good value, the service was very friendly and there was a good friendly mix of people in - even the dog! The folky music was of a decent level. Beer;tap stuff, with Staropromen. On handpull there were Davenports Irish Whiskey Ale, Wadsworth 6X, Church End Old Pal and a very good Keystone's Dark Porter A superb place - more than worthy of the GBG status and a delight to visit on all fronts - GO!
