Ian Mapp left this review about The Bird in Hand

Lovely back street, terraced local. Two roomer, with a central bar offering serving to both sides. Several cask - not necessarily fully advertised on both sides, so worth asking whats on. This visit, it was Jaipur, Butty, Town Crier and Holdens Golden Glow (chosen, perfect).

Very busy on a Friday lunch with a turnover of people dropping in for one or two and moving on with their day.

A no swearing sign not obeyed from an Australiaphobe who wasnt a fan of their cricketers.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Bird in Hand

Old-school, side-street pub of the first order. Retains a separate bar and lounge on each side of the compact central servery, both very traditional, but the former slightly larger but plainer. Also has a enclosed and covered rear yard for extra seating. Cobs for food, naturally... Fine choice of local(ish) cask ales from the five handpumps split between the two counters: Evo and Town Crier from Hobson's, Enville Ale, Holden's Golden Glow (£3.60) and Fallen Angel from Church End.

Two rooms in a U shape. My Holden’s was just about par but I’ve had much better of theirs (NBSS 2.5). Lack of notes makes me think it didn’t leave much in the way of an impression. GBG’23 listed and local CAMRA branch POTY which surprised me, given the absence of much better pubs nearby (where the Bathams houses??)
