Fox & Goose, Westwood, Droitwich

Newly reopened Sam Smith's pub, and quite unusual for the brewery being in a purpose built single-storey structure in a 1970s suburban shopping centre. Fairly typical estate pub layout with a large, comfortable lounge (with a pool table) and smaller, plainer public bar. However, unusual in that it is all well maintained and still much as originally intended. Also has a basic patio terrace, which is where most of the customers were on a sunny evening. Apart from that and the fearsome display of rules about what you are and are not allowed to do, there is no real ale and the keg OBB comes in at £3.00.

Reopened two months ago and was suddenly closed again, last week, after a flying visit from brewery owner Humphrey Smith. Apparently, he overheard a customer swearing, whilst joking with his wife.
