The Dram Shop, Hull

Amazing exterior and an almost amazing interior however lousy beer. How often do we hear that? Well it's true here, what’s left inside is fantastic, the ceiling, the central barback and the furniture looks original, add to that the architrave and possibly the bits in T&G, wow. Three handpumps, two in use, I chose Trinity and it was awful, I didn’t try the Crafty Little Brewery and the other was unclipped. Constant hard rock at high volume didn’t help my well being on this occasion, sometimes it would, just one of them days I guess.

As Alan states there is no real ale but is worth a quick visit to view the decorative ceiling and the large round wooded island bar which reminded me of a Scottish pub.
