Real Ale Ray left this review about The Angus

A soulless one roomed bar with staff to match. However they did have a choice of four cask ales on handpump, Neptune Brewery AGWE, Goffs Skinny Latte Stout, Cotswold Wai-iti and Cromwell Best Bitter. I went for the Neptune which was excellent. This is a cashless bar so when you go to pay you are requested to walk down the right hand side of the bar and use their screen to tap. This method is very confusing initially, as the screen offers a gratuity option of 15,20 or 25% straight away. I picked the 20% option, thinking I was giving a 20p tip as I do in other pubs. I then realised I had just given an 80p tip on a £4 beer, bringing it to £4.80. The staff weren't interested in my dilemma and explained I could have opted out. This mysterious 'opt out' icon was a small dot in the corner of the screen. The manageress got annoyed and said she would return the tip, which was embarrassing.
It is my fault at the end of the day, but I couldn't wait to get out the place and visit a proper pub, so I went to the nearby Vernon Arms.
