Strongers . left this review about Bridge Hotel
The Bridge Hotel had a Star Pubs for lease sign out the front, but it was still open during a recent midweek evening. There’s a carpeted central bar with a serving counter across the rear that faces lots of standing room and a central supporting column with adjacent barrel table that is encircled by high stools. Tables and lounge furniture run along the front wall and there’s a wooden floored seating area to the right where a television sits above a fireplace, Sky Sports is advertised. To the left some steps descend to tile floored seating that feels like it’s more for dining. The service was friendly, but this feels like a generic high street boozer, so with such great competition over the road I can’t see me making a return visit.

Split level open plan pub lurking almost under the viaduct, three pulls of Wainwright, Razorback and a Greene King beer called Springbreak. A bit food oriented and much modernised from the nice old boozer I remember.

Called in because the Station House was closed temporarily. Alas, no ale of any note to try so had a half of lager and left to catch my train.
