Looking forward to my visit here.
Arrived at 12:23 on a Saturday. Pub all in darkness and closed up.

A decent Everards boozer tucked in amongst the Georgian terraces of Leamington suburbia but still within walking distance of the centre.
The interior has clearly been refurbished over the years but with a little sympathy towards the original layout as the presence of the small snug bar behind the main bar indicates. The front bar though is an open plan affair but comfortable nonetheless.
The welcome was friendly and there were assorted chatty locals perched on bar stools and engaging in general banter.
Beer on was Everards Old Original, in very good nick, Tiger, Sunchaser and Beacon. Guests were Burton Bridge Damson Porter which was recommended by the locals but on a quick taste I felt that it had seen better days, Adnams Southwold and Broadside. A decent selection and well kept Everards beers are always worth seeking out.
Leamington isn't overly blessed with top quality ale houses but this is one of its best and worth a visit.

A reliable Everards house with four of their beers plus two Adnams and a guest beer,it features in the 2014 GBG and my Tiger was very good.The two window alcoves in the tap room are cosy ,the darts board above the brick fireplace was all very traditional,while the rear snug with it's own bar access looked a great place to quietly sup and included serveral original features.The pub is a bit of a totty free zone,but well worth seeking out on a crawl around town.
