Cat With No Tail, Governers Hill, Douglas

Visited 03/06/26. Visited previously 24/09/19.

Cask was Okells threesome of Best, MPA and 1907, with the Best doubled up on the four handpumps on either side of the bar counter. Keg was Falcon lager, Orchard View cider, their AF lager called Zero and Nectar NEIPA all also from Okells, then dark fruits SB, Guinness, Madri, Staro, Carling.

Decent car parking out the front in this Okells establishment. Large venue, central entrance at the front to a small lobby before venue divides into two large areas either side, served by a long bar counter where bar staff can move between the two sides. Left-hand side has an apex roof and feels like the lounge bar side, mostly occupied by diners on my visit. Plenty of regular tables and chairs plus a plush leather booth table to the immediate right of the entrance and some banquettes around a good part of the perimeter serving regular tables. No screens this side and a large artificial green tree in the centre of the floorspace a bit of an anomaly in the decor of the place, and which makes the large room somehow feel smaller! Right-hand side is bare boarded apart from a tile skirt at the bar counter. Regular tables and chairs in the centre floor space and regular tables served by a banquette on the side facing the bar counter on the rear wall. A couple of pool tables at the rear and a few screens showing recorded TT action. There are some large attractive brewery mirrors on the wall above the banquette. There is a beer garden at the rear, but I didn't go out and investigate as I managed to grab what felt like the only table inside that was free at the time of my visit.
