Another decent Ember Inn with a reasonable line up of ales. 4 to choose from pretty much as stated below. I quite like Ember Inns - for a "foody" chain they at least offer a choice of beers. Worth a visit.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Woodmans Rest

Substantial Ember Inn with various seating / dining areas but all having very anonymous semi-modern furniture and decor (although the original front windows remain). Also has quite a large front patio area for the better weather. On the real ale front, I found London Pride, Bombardier, Tribute, Purity Pure UBU and Black Sheep's Twilighter 'fresh' IPA (just £2.79, which surprised me) available from a total of 11 handpumps on the 'L'-shaped counter.

A nice, but typical Ember Inn eatery. Modern decor inside, its comfortable and pleasent enough. 4 real ales, but quality not brilliant, despite entry in 2010 Good Beer Guide.
