David Walton left this review about Canton Cross Vaults
Visited 07/08/24.
Simple venue. Bar against the front wall with seating areas either side . Seating arrangements a mixture of banquettes and regular chairs around tables that have gone the distance. Dartboard but clearly table and chairs in the area to the side of the bar would need to be moved for anyone to play. Imagine that is a high hurdle here. Very small outside seating area off the far end of the pub from the entrance.
No cask. Keg options were Guinness, Cruz, Carling, Thatchers Haze, Coors, Worthington CF and Strongbow (regular and dark fruits).
One of the most basic venues I have been to in recent times. Refreshingly simple in fact. No cask makes it just average though.

This consists of a smallish wide room split into different areas. The bar is on the right and there is an obstructed dart board near the entrance. A few locals were in for food on my Friday afternoon visit and they had 2 meals for £9.00 advertised. There was also a poster for open mic night on Tuesday. A large TV screen was showing Rugby.
There is no real ale here and the Worthington Smoothflow crap at £3.30 was poor value compared to other nearby pubs. As I was about to leave the landlady came out of the kitchen for a friendly chat. With the lack of real ale this prevented it from a very poor score.
