Fairly characterless box of a bar at the front, we were served £3.30 pints of Doombar from an uninspiring choice across the 3 handpumps by an antipodean barman devoid of personality. They had a Sky match showing at the front, didn't bother investigating the rear room. Must've been around halloween as some awful woman was organising her kid to go round with a 'trick or treat' begging bucket & then drinking the proceeds at the cafe style tables on front pavement (she was seen doing the same elsewhere). I won't be back.
