Bucking Fastard left this review about The Andover Arms

A charming ,small Fullers tied house,on a street corner and with very attractive etched glass doors marked saloon and public bar,although the interior has been opened out into a L shaperd space with the longer side running into a rear dining room.The furniture is all traditional,the is a small array of snob screens and the open kitchen was busy but food smells did not invade the interior.The ale options were London Pride,Seafarers and a very good ESB (NBSS 4) served in a dimple glass by the friendly guv'nor.The soundtrack was decent and at a modest volume.
All very authentic and deserving of its 2025 GBG listing,it serves the upmarket surrounding well and is worth seeking out.

A backstreet Fullers pub with a dark green interior which actually works and sets off some nice gilt- and stained- glasswork over the bar. The snob screens looked a bit new but at least they were there, and it did feel nice and pubby, rather than restauranty. The helpful barman clearing tables actually invited me to sit a a table he had just cleaned pending the arrival of the next reservation, which was kind but I didn't want to undo his good work. Cask ales were London Pride, ESB and Seafarers. Another pub I would have been happy to stay in.

Dating from 1853, this place is on CAMRA’s inventory of pubs with significant interiors, this being of Some Regional Importance, poorly illustrated on their website.
Bare boarded, the walls are no longer grey but whitish with attractive little recesses, the whole being moderately characterful. Furniture is conventional, with lighting coming from Wellington lights and candle sconces. The minor treat here though is the bar array. The pot shelf features a carved parapet and snob screens, supported by Solomonic columns. The rear includes lovely sections of polychromatic glass and gilded mirrors. Customers were mainly young, few in number – the Anglesea was full – some rather potty mouthed, another seated with a loud whining dog.
Being a Fuller’s house, there was Hophead (missed due to barholes), then a two of their dull beers in the form of Seafarer and Pride at £2.40 a half, served by a friendly barmaid which tasted…well…of Pride (the beer obviously, not the barmaid).
What with the potty mouthed customers, whimpering dog and dull ale selection, I don’t envisage a return visit; the Thatched House is better, the neighbouring Anglesea more so.
