Everards local. A gently modernised old 70s skool interior with black beams, white embossed wallpaper, tongue and groove wood. Some old baccy tins above the bar. Tidy rear garden. A really good atmosphere on my mid-afternoon weekday visit. Four Everards cask; Tiger and Old plus two of the small batches. My Tiger was superb (NBSS 4.5) so I tried a small batch (Pharoah) to see if that would be any good and was rewarded with another good pint - 3.5. Cobs available. Seemingly not on the local CAMRA radar, I’ll be making a point of getting back to this one.

The Red Admiral is a really nice looking pub that is on the southern edge of Broughton Astley.
Once inside there was a single L shaped room which was quite smart with bench seating and small stools the room was carpeted.
This pub is an Everards tied house and there were three real aels on the bar i had a drink of Everards Tiger bitter and this was a decent drink the other beers were Everards Original and London Pride.
There was some very good music playing on the sound system from the likes of Oasis and Duffy,i could have stayed here all afternoon.
