Huntsman Tavern, Salisbury

An old school traditional backstreet pub, one for the locals away from the tourists. Two handpumps, one beer which was Ringwood Razorback. There were several TV screens dotted about the two or three room setup, Darts, Cricket and Football all being aired. A pool table and dartboard added to the entertainment. A decent pub of its type but a dull beer offering doesn't encourage a return.

Corner pub off the main drag. A number of small rooms knocked together inside, though there's a couple of cubby holes available. Trying (probably from an old refurb) to be a ‘country pub in the city’ the decor has red pub carpet and hunting print wallpaper. However the TV football, over-dominant pool table by the bar and the garish posters rather kill that atmosphere. Two pumps, with just Ringwood on. The resultant half was awful and got dumped, perhaps no surprise given the goldfingered barmaid didn’t even know where the ale pump was. There’s potential for a nice little pub here but on this showing I won’t be venturing in again.
