Old Boots left this review about The New Clarence

Hull’s first and perhaps only community owned pub, it’s a big square room inside. There’s a U shaped counter with seven pumps on the front face serving a good mix of Yorkshire beers from Taylors, Bini, Atom, Wensleydale, Half Moon and an interloper from Welbeck Abbey. A couple of T-bars and solos for the keggery and about eight real ciders which I take to be BIB. Nice button back banquettes and some booths. A few old features are still extant mainly tongue & groove and architrave. A big blown up map of Kingston upon Hull from the 17th or 18th century covers one wall. There’s a small more secluded area off to the right. A comfy pub making a good two hander with the Hop & Vine round the corner.

ROB Camra left this review about The New Clarence

This community owned pub is now settling in and is going strong. We called in on a Thursday, early afternoon and it was doing a steady trade. 5 handpumps on the go and both the pints I had were in excellent nick. Ms CAMRA tried two different ones and was equally impressed. They're still after funding to reopen the upstairs into a function room, so donations are welcome. There's weekly quiz on Wednesday and a poker night. Friendly staff and locals are a bonus. All the best guys and good luck.

aleand hearty left this review about The New Clarence

After a rather chequered history in recent years, the New Clarence was recently taken on by the team behind the excellent Whalebone. Up to eight real ales are reportedly now available . Sounds very promising.
