Interesting old building, was last in here many years ago when it was Athenaeum. According to CAMRA's WhatPub entry for this place, "This bar did stop serving real ale in 2016 but has restarted in 2018 with 2 handpumps" but on calling in on Saturday we found no real ale and no hand pumps from which it could be served, so the real ale appears to have gone again. The only remotely interesting beer that stood out was Wreckless (Redwillow) on keg. Decided not to stay and went in search of somewhere serving real ale instead.

A lovely place to enjoy a drink. Very decorative inside and with marble pillars and a decorative ceiling. Suffice to say it is very grandiose inside. I'll leave it to others to better describe it. The island bar served two cask ales today, Doom Bore and Wainwright.

Very nice place for a drink had a pint of Doom bar in good form but should be for the money very pricey but dont moan keep out the only thing that spoils it theres a lot of Hooray Henrys in that look down on people but worth a visit. A vast improvement from the Athenaeum will call again
