Single storey pub, it says Greene King on the sign but inside there is a far wider choice on the 12 pumps, two with cider. A long single room with a small slightly separate room at the rear left housing a screen and the toilet entrances. Mainly exposed brick walls with a few pictures as decor, tile and parquet floors apparently showing where walls used to be. Banquette seating mostly, it’s even got a piano. Obviously a Camra favourite there’s a discount, awards and various leaflets.

Brainy Pool left this review about The Taps
Greene King pub that seems to be pretty much independently run. Cosy dimly lit alehouse interior with a nice calm feel, no TVs or electronic distractions, just some quiet modern indie background music. Food is offered and there are a few reserved tables. Overall it’s a pretty good place but I felt there were a few too many similar beers on. Is there really a need for so many bog standard national ales to be on at once? Is anyone really drinking Greene King IPA or Old Speckled Hen in here? My breakfast stout was only in fair to middling condition.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Taps
We really enjoyed our visit to this proper drinker's pub, with no sign of any food service in sight. The pub had a good atmosphere and the beer quality was excellent. 12 handpumps on this visit, serving 10 ales and 2 ciders. We went for the Fixed Wheel Wheelie Pale and sat near the wood burning stove briefly before running for the train.
