My favourite traditional pub in Worcester - surprised I haven't reviewed it before. Enter through a thin hallway - with a room to the left and right (both small and traditionally furnished) and a small sheltered outside courtyard.
Beers are always good - usually a couple from Ledbury Brewery and in fine condition. Good Keg options too, with international beers and craft. Cider (held in the cellar, requiring a bar mans walk) and whisky well represented.
Impossible not to get into conversations with the locals, as it is so small.
Always a pleasure to visit.

The pub I was most looking forward to doing again in Worcester and by happy coincidence I picked a time for the stag do to appear whilst a chunk of the regulars were at a local beer festival, so it was a bit more quiet and relaxed than a usual Friday night. This worked well, as the friendly landlady popped over and chatted to us. The cask was fine form, with pints of Mighty Oak Old Man & The Sea (NBSS 4.5) and Ledbury Bitter (4) slipping down way too easily and easily justifying its GBG'24 inclusion. My favourite in Worcester and the groom agreed, as he demanded to stay for a second! A real gem; I think I’m going for a full 10.

A quick end-of-night visit as it serves until half 11 on a Saturday. Still excellent and I had a first-class pint of Hobsons Bitter. A top, top pub with some interesting characters including a 6ft transvestite and their elderly mother knocking pints back. Brilliant. 9.5

A fleeting visit found six well-selected ales and two proper ciders. Interior and ambience remain unchanged, still a terrific little boozer. My half of Malvern Hills MHB was in good form. A place you should do without hesitation.

A multi-roomed public house with the bar situated up a few steps on entering which is unusual. Two rooms lead off here, fairly small and cosy and both have real fires. The sage green interior is reminiscent of a bygone age, the 1950’s perhaps. Six ales and two ciders available, with a heavy slant to local micros which also results in some fairly cheap prices too. Lagers are on a porcelain font and there’s also an impressive array of single malt whiskies. My Hobson's Mild was excellent and my other drinkers all commented on the high quality of the pub’s brews. This is a friendly and welcoming place with an eclectic mix of customers. Rear patio allows for a decent view of the nearby cathedral. Filled rolls available at the bar. Certainly it’s one of the best pubs in the area and jockeys with the Dragon for the ‘best in Worcester’ title. A must-visit. Rated 9
