The Rising Sun, Stourport-On-Severn

Having traipsed around town looking for a pub with decent ale,we came across The Rising Sun which proved to be an oasis.There was a fair selection from the Marston's portolio of breweries and I really enjoyed the well kept Banks's Sunbeam and Wychwood Cherry Picker. The front door opens onto a seating with a woodburner while to the left is the bar ,which is where the drinkers congregate in front of the TV screen. There is a seperate small restaurant section with screen turned off, beyond which is a charming canalside terrace with attractive flower arrangements.The low ceilings and multi levels gives the interior a great charm.Although we didn't eat,the food pricing seemed incredibly good value and some of the pints were sub £2.50.The landlady was very friendly and chatty,even with strangers like us,and for me this is the first pub I would head to when in Stourport.
