Previously Modello, this awful dive is every bit as bad inside as it looks from outside. A n outwardly unattractive and decrepit building, which you'd be forgiven for thinking was derelict, with a single large drinking space, plus some seedy looking booths, it's essentially a dumping ground for Yeovil's hard-of-thinking on giro day, a bigged-up malodorous cesspit with sticky floors, where the noise, which we assumed was the sound of the Devil breaking wind, was so loud you can't hold a conversation. It opens late, serving cheap alcohol to the next generation of drunkards, with unhappy hours until 10pm. Some evenings are ticket-only, and they run events such as live music, cocktail evenings and private parties. The tribal behaviour of the rutting morons inside would have made good documentary-fodder for a David Attenborough special. Needless to say, there was nothing even remotely resembling proper beer on sale, and even if they did food, I wouldn't have risked it. Mercifully for the local residents, it's only open 3 nights a week. I wouldn't want to come back here, ever, not even for a late night drink out of desperation.

This will appeal to 0.00000001% of people on here.I was happy I didn't have to pay as that's how the website sells it somewhat on the few days a week it opens.
Get in early before the crowds roll up.
Admittedly I can't grumble at £2.25 for a pint of Peroni.
