Quinno _ left this review about The Old Yard
It is indeed a taverna restaurant but there's a bar at the front with three cask, though nothing to startle the horses. My Bradfield Farmer's Blonde was fine (NBSS 3). Decor is part-Spanish (restaurant) part-trad pub (bar area) and said bar area really has minimal seating for imbibing. It's a GBG oddity; I wouldn't see the need to re-do it unless I wanted food. That said, it was very busy on a Thursday night.

Despite the tapas bar name and odd bits of Spanish decoration this isn't a bad pub. It has two separate side with their own bars but only one was in use at time of visit. There is a large outdoor area on the pavement. A good range of beers included Pennine North 2 South, St Austell Proper Job, Graphite Black IPA, Ringwood 49er and John Smiths Cask, plus a few fizzy craft.

Not sure why this is called a Tapas Bar. It has two rooms and two bars and was very busy and very good. Ringwood 49er on Hand Pump. Would revisit.
