Looks like changes are afoot - previously I had stated that this was an "Enjoyable local pub with four ales on" which certainly wasn't the case on the visit before last. There were only two, one of which needed to be returned and the replacement wasn't too much better. The latest visit in March found one Banks ale on, which tasted decent but the place has a long way to go - it no longer features in the Campaign for Real Ale's Good Beer Guide, for example. Food available and pub quiz on Friday. Pool tables and darts feature (though retardedly you can't play darts if the right-hand pool table is occupied) as well as a beer garden. There are two bars, though the second one up the steps (pic below) gets used very rarely.
