This is Lyme Regis' entry in the Good Beer Guide. However, I found at least 2 pubs that were better, on this visit. The pub has a prime position overlooking the coastline and also sits next to the town's main bus stop. The interior is light and airy with an outdoor terrace. Inside, the main room is supplemented by a smaller dining room. Flooring is mainly black and white tiles, with some boards near the window. Walls and painted in pastel colours and have a few black and white pictures of the area.

A TV was off but there was some background music, which was almost inaudible. At the bar, St Austell Tribute & Proper Job are the regular cask ales. St Austell Anthem was also on, along with Bath Gem. Keg beers included St Austell Mena Dhu & Harbour Session IPA. Ciders were Thatcher's Blood Orange, Apple & Blackcurrant & Cloudy Lemon. Food is served lunchtimes and evenings.

I thought this was a slight improvement on the Pilot Boat opposite, it had a nicer atmosphere and service was better but the beer range seemed fairly pedestrian and once again, there didn't appear to be any locals present, just holidaymakers.

GBG 2023 - superb position overlooking the sea. Fine terrace, although the sail type coverings block the sun.

Beer was in very good shape. Doubt I have enjoyed a Bath Ales Gem more and the proper job was bang on too.

Lovely seaside boozer.

A Georgian town pub which has lost much of its character through an unsympathetic renovation including knocking the ground floor through into a single bar while adding a dining area in an extension which was previously a separate business – a chip shop, I think. The upstairs rooms are now used for B&B, which includes dogs. There is a large non-smoking outside terrace at the rear which gives you a good view of the sea front and the antics of the passers-by. It’s currently run by St Austell, so two of their beers were on alongside a guest, Bath Gem. The beers were in very good condition. The staff were quite helpful despite it being busy, though sadly many of the customers were less pleasant. Food times are a bit unpredictable – apparently they are having chef issues. It’s a good place to rock in for a pint or two, but I’d probably eat elsewhere.
