King William IV, Totnes

Attractive curved exterior with some lovely old stained glass windows. MOR place, fairly tidy if unfortunately glooped in greyish green paint inside. Four rooms via knock-through and someone's made an effort with a bunch of Beryl Cook prints as well as curtains, which I like. GBG listed with three cask, 2x Dartmoor and St Austell PJ. My Dartmoor Legend was par (NBSS 3) and the barman polite.

The King William IV is a long and thin pub with an attractive curved frontage of stained glass lead lined windows. Raised seating is found in this front windowed section, I gleaned that this is the prime seating area. The serving counter is found mid-way up the right-hand wall where it faces banquettes up the left and more seating is found at the rear. I think my recent Tuesday early evening visit may have been just before a quiz or something because all of the tables were reserved, with half of them being used at the time. Standard and premium keg were available alongside Camden Hells and I counted five hand pumps that were drawing Dartmoor Brewery’s Jail Ale and Legend alongside St Austell’s Proper Job and a couple of Thatcher’s Stan’s ciders. The service was polite and I enjoyed the busy atmosphere so I’d pop back in if passing.
