Strongers . left this review about Vernon Arms
The Vernon Arms is a long and thin bare board floored pub with a small raised seating area to the left that is screened from the entrance up the right. The long serving counter runs up the left-hand wall where it faces banquettes up the right-hand wall. In the rear on the way to the toilets is a room with more banquettes, which I imagine comes into its own when the pub is busy because there’s a lot of standing room in the bar area. The seven hand pumps were drawing three real ciders alongside Brimstage Brewery’s Oyster Catcher, Ossett’s White Rat, Off Piste and a decent Brains Rev James. Premium keg and Carling were also available from the polite barman. This is a decent pub so I was surprised to be one of only three people in attendance listening to the background music on a recent Monday evening when lesser pubs in the area were busier.

A long roomed traditional corner pub with a locals feel to it, seven handpumps offered up six cask beers and one Cider, beers were Coach House Gunpowder, Kirkstall Dissolution IPA, Salopian Oracle, Brains The Rev James, Ossett White Rat and Black Edge Citra , my choice, the Cider was Gwynt Y Ddraig Black Dragon. A nice beer selection and top pub.

Really good corner pub with six cask beers plus three ciders. Front room extends a long way back, leading to the toilets and the Latham Lounge, while a small area at the very front is half-screened from the bar area. I went for the local and popular Brimstage Trappers Hat, which was in very good condition (NBSS 4), though I would prefer it if it was actually bitter rather than just called a bitter. The sound system was playing some of my least favourite songs, like Mr Blue Sky, Starman and Bat Out of Hell. Those reading this review and who like these tracks - and bear in mind that I know who you are - will no doubt be flocking to this pub asap.
