The Castle, Bishop's Stortford

This is a two roomed pub hidden away from the town and looking at the locally closed casualty numbers, doing well to remain so. The bar is ahead in the larger main room, mostly standard seating in here, lower walls panelled, interesting tubular pattern obscure glass to the lower windows. The Tv in here was showing 6 Nations rugby ,other decor included a large Charrington's mirror, thoughtlessly partially hidden by a quiz machine. A dartboard in usable condition to the side of the bar, ceiling beams are covered in banknotes one side, regulars' photos the other. The smaller side room looks like an old granny's parlour with the fireplace centre stage, clocks, lamps, vases and an old Carling Black Label font top on here, all the fire making tools below, plus oddly a few Darth Vader figures. There is evidence of a pub cat in here, with a food bowl present, but no sign of the feline unfortunately. Books and games on shelves in here too. A pinboard has information plus regular's postcards. There is a hatch to the bar. As to the beer, three handpumps, St Austell Tribute, Brains SA and Brains Bread of Heaven. A sign states Brain's beers all at £3.00 and Super Sunday has £1 off all pints from 7:30 till closing. Fill yer boots.
