poor. The landlord appears to know nothing about beer

This pub's character has changed out of all recognition since I last came here about 5 years ago. It consists of a well executed conversion of the hospital chapel, which has retained much of the charm the original building offered. A change of management has definitely been for the better - there are 4 ales on, they do reasonable food, and it is now more like a comfortable, welcoming local than the yoof club it previously was. An assortment of seating, magnificent wooden staircase, stained-glass windows, homely adornments and the original chapel floors all add to the pub's attraction. The landlord says he isn't really an ale fan, but it's hard to believe as his beer is very well kept, and he runs beer festivals in this pub. I had pints of Cotleigh Tawny, Exmoor Fox and Sharp's Red, all in excellent condition. Well worth a visit if in the area.

The Chapel is re-opening on Friday 16 November, under new ownership/management. This time it will be a proper village local, rather than the trumped-ip 'fine dining gastro-pub' in the wrong location that it was under the previous regime. Best of luck to the new owners, and see you on Friday.
