As others have said, this pub unfortunately does not live up to it's promise. Very attractive from the outside with flowers liberally adoring the pub, and even troughs at the end of many of the tables. Inside it's pretty soulless, and like Gristy says the fact that they still have original windows with Saloon Bar and Public Bar on then leading you through to single L-shaped room is very disappointing. There was a plasma on the wall that was on too loudly, and a typical pub grub menu, although this appeared rather on the pricey side.

Nonetheless, in spite of all that it's a pleasant place to sit out the front and watch the world go by, or just drool at some of the cars parked on the forecourt of the Ferrari dealership next door.

Beers on this occasion were Westgate Sun Dance, Greene King APA and Abbot Ale. The only cider was Strongbow unfortunately.
