Strongers . left this review about The Dockyard

The Dockyard is an open plan bar with a serving counter on the right wall that faces some high tables and benches. Under the front windows are some large high table with interesting high armchairs. There’s a worn wooden floor throughout and a huge projector screen on the left wall shows Sky Sports, which was muted in favour of background music during a recent midweek evening visit. On the rear wall is a dartboard and two shuffleboard tables, which is a first for me to see in a pub.
The bar supports five handpumps that were all unused. A premium keg range was available, half a Staropramen was £3. Food is available, but the kitchen was closed during my visit. The barmaid was polite, but there were a few drunk kids showing off so I sloshed my beer down and left.

Sports Bar, with possibly the biggest TV screen I have seen indoors. Staropramen as I didn't observe any cask.

ROB Camra left this review about The Stokers Arms

A few years ago when a mate of mine lived up the road this was an O'Neils, so we avoided it like the plague. It now sounds like it should be a traditional pub, but it's just one huge room with canteen style long tables. All the walls are bare brick with little decoration on them. In fact there's very little of note throughout the pub. A good range of ales during my visit with 4 being available from the 5 handpumps. My pint of Siren Craft Half Mast was in good nick and the girls who came and sat on the next table to me were very attractive. So not a lost cause by any means, but I suspect it's rammed with teenies later on.
