A large and impressive looking pub from the outside, inside is tidy but rather featureless, and appropriately coloured in shades of grey, although it does run to a (loud) carpet. The sports TV screens seem to be its main reason for being, certainly not the beer with a choice of John Smith's smooth crap or Caffreys as bitters. With a handful of morose punters studiously ignoring each other with eyes glued to the screens, you do start to wonder if Humphrey has a point.

One room pub with an almost central servery, home to two horseshoes of everyone’s favourite kegs including John Smith’s smooth crap, plus a solo Strongbow and an unexpected Moretti plus some keg wine. An estate pub without an estate but a fair bunch of eccentrics, big lass bar maid, and doms playing auld lads to make it interesting. Not sure why there are empty but candle-less gin bottles on the tables.

The Marcia Grey is on acombs main shopping street and it looks qiute a large pub from the outside.
Once inside the bar faces the door and this area is not that wide, at either side of the bar the room widens out and i thought the pub seemed quite smart.
There were two handpumps on the bar but both were uncliped so i asked if there was any real ale on and the barmaid picked up an Old Speckled Hen beer mat and leaned it against the pump and said this beer is on, the Old Speckled Hen was a decent drink but it is not really to my taste.
The pub was very busy with different age groups and it was a comfortable enough place to have a drink in.
