A slog over from the Spoons for this GBG’23 entry. Indeed it is thatched, so that made me feel positive. A slightly awkward layout befitting previous knock-throughs; the servery is off-right as you enter, via a pretty tiled floor and a jumbo vinyl banner proclaiming their status as the local CAMRA's 2023 POTY winners. Very quiet on early Saturday afternoon, just me and another punter. A warm welcome from behind the bar after my Chernobyl t-shirt was spotted - the lass was Ukrainian which sparked-off a lively chat about her homeland. Five cask and a cider available which seemed a tad optimistic - one GK (for it is owned by them) and four local brews. My Exeter County Best was in decent shape all things considered (NBSS 3) and a CAMRA discount was actively offered. A tidy local serving the local upmarket area, though I didn't catch it at its best, it felt like an evening venue.
