Dropped in to check out the beer festival yesterday, and I'm pleased to report that the refurbishment is complete, and that the character of the pub has been retained. Good stuff.

The refurbishment is 99% complete now - we're just waiting on a couple of fencing panels and a few more plants to be installed out the back, and we're all done.

I visited this pub on Wednesday, hopeful that the refurb mentioned below would have been completed by now, but unfortunately I found the pub still in a state of transition, which makes reviewing it a little tricky given the missing furniture et al. The friendly barman informed me that they were having a big reopening on Saturday 5th June.
The interior is fairly big, although it may be deceptively so given the open spaces in some parts. The refurb seems to be similar those given to a lot of other Young’s pubs in the last year or so, but it generally looked pretty good and I would imagine the finished article will be very pleasant.
Only Young’s Ordinary (£2.90) and Special on the pumps, although their website suggests that they have a guest ale on normally. Given the sunny weather and lack of indoor seating, I took my pint out to the beer garden where there was a BBQ in full swing. Surreally, the pub had an energetic young piglet running around on its roof terrace, presumably incensed at watching its forefathers being grilled below.
A decent enough Young’s pub and despite the turmoil it did enough to convince me to return and check out the finished product.
