An old , low beamed pub with a central bar. Despite being an aged pub the interior set up had a fairly modern feel about it, Six Nations Rugby was showing on TV, the food menu was Pizza based. Four Rebellion beers were on, Selkie was a new one on me. The pub is card only.

Most of the woodwork is a grey/greeny colour now though the ship's rope remains. The two young staff were glued to their phones like their lives depended on it. No cask despite the misleading dispense at the rear with fake handpumps - my Rebellion XX was definitely not kosher but, that said, was enjoyable. There were three of these Rebellion fake cask plus some more obviously dispense keg, though being so far away from the bar I struggled to make out what. My half was a very Marlow £3.10 - that's 61p more than I paid for a pint at The Grand Assembly. If you're in town this place is probably still worth a nose but with no cask and the new Spoons over the way, I suspect you won't linger too long.

Relatively modern interior but a bit of character retained. A multi-roomer, two as you enter separated by fireplace with a long rear room beyond. Battleship grey and white uppers, black inlay beams with ship rope hanging from the lower ones. Herringbone flooring and a large old wooden barrel also. Apparently a good beer garden but we missed it. Three pumps with two Rebellion ales on; Zebedee (extremely good nick) and IPA. The branded glass took the fancy of our lady crawler and she offered at the bar to pay for it to take home, but was given it for free for ‘being honest’ – lovely touch. A nice straight-down-the-line boozer with good beer in a town centre largely devoid of that combo, so gets a 7 for that. Rated 7

A nice old town pub, with two sides om entry but both leading to the same bar behind. Some areas have a stupidly low beamed ceiling, leading to a crouched walk for anyone over average height, although the considerable woodwork adds to the atmosphere, which is one of the most pubbish in the town centre. It extends back a surprising distance, with more normal height areas to the rear. Various nautical pictures and knick-knacks are on display. Beers still from Rebellion, with IPA, Gold and Wingman in good condition. Quite a comfortable place, and some good conversation going on.
