paulof horsham left this review about The Alexandra Arms

One of those pubs with more handles than ales, with 3 out of action today, leaving Old Rosie's cider and 4 cask - Deuchars, Siren Mild and 2 local-ish from Essex breweries. It's also one of those pubs where £5.60 doesn't quite get you a full pint unfortunately. Keg options include Moretti and Level Head (this being a Greene King pub, but not overly), as well as something called Zebra.

You can get food all day and service is friendly, so The Alexandra is worth investigating, though you'll obviously find wider beer choices not very far away.

GBG 2025 Entry. A corner street boozer, with two rooms. The pick the one with the real fire. Nice outdoor area, that also included a summer house. Greene King but they seemingly dont stock their beers, with plenty of independent choices.

Didnt like the £2 electronic tip machine placed central on the bar. I refuse to be guilt ridden at today's beer prices!

A reasonable backstreet pub albeit somewhat modernised inside, my three Blind Mice Porterhouse Blues was a good drop. I didn't really warm to the interior despite some decent ale, worth the visit though.
