Strongers . left this review about Sir Robert Peel
It was surprisingly busy during my recent late afternoon midweek visit to the Sir Robert Peel. Through the door there’s wood flooring throughout and seating in the front right window. A supporting column with beer shelf breaks up this front area and the rear where a long high table sits in the centre faced by banquettes that run up the right under a television. This was off because the jukebox was cranked up for the rock selection. In the front right is an open plan seating area that was closed off, which made the pub feel even busier with everyone crammed into the bar area where the counter runs up the left-hand wall. Standard and premium keg were available and I counted five hand pumps, four of which were in operation drawing Little Critters Brewing’s Vanilla Chinchilla and Turterly Tropical alongside Sharp’s Twin Coast and Good Chemistry’s Golden Age. The barmaid was polite and I was served pretty quick considering the amount of people stood along the counter. I supped my half of uninspiring Chinchilla at the aforementioned beer shelf whilst taking in all the beer and music stuff that’s nailed to the walls. There’s also a large collection of old pump clips around the counter, always a good sign. When some handbags started just behind me, "you're the tightest man I've ever met", I decided to move on. I liked it in here and would have no issue returning.

Very popular Camra favourite in the GBG for years. A single odd shaped room with a large garden out the back. A main bar with the counter to the left and a separate almost room to the right, it has an old timber interior that’s been messed about with. There are screens and a juke box but neither too intrusive. Wooden floors, a traditional red/cream colour scheme and furnishings with a sad touch of grey woodwork, it has reasonably restrained pump clip decor. Five pulls with bizarrely three from Yorkshire, Blue Bee, Vocation, Jolly Boys and one blank, the last and local was a Titanic Porter variant. Other pump clips show a wider choice previously available. There are labelled regular’s glasses and mugs hung up behind which a sign of a good pub. Toilets are upstairs and badly signed from downstairs. Also bizarrely it opens at 1pm during the week but at 2pm on Saturdays.

Good Beer Guide Entry. Visit ruined by a bunch of old guys expressing their racist viewpoints, using derogatory phrases I haven't heard since the 70s.
