The Elephant and Castle is a decent looking pub that is in the quiet village of Thurlaston.
Once inside there was a very small room to the left which had a TV and a few tall stools,the room to the right was a very smart lounge this room had the bar in it,the room was carpeted and had very comfortable bench seating,the ceiling had beams and these were covered with old pump clips,there was also a seperate dining room to the rear of the pub.
This pub is an Everards tied house and there were four real ales on the bar i had a drink of Everards Beacon bitter and this was a very nice drink the other beers were Tiger bitter, Original and a rugby themed beer called Pitch Black.
This was a very smart and comfortable pub with very nice beer on the bar.
I would happily go in this pub again.
