as noted, the real ale has gone. It was always a bit of an afterthought in here in any case, it’s really a student-oriented night venue, with a vacuous chain-pub atmosphere in the afternoon. Very little fixed seating, it’s an uncomfortable dark place and I have never taken to it. In its current form, definitely not.

A large, opened out single roomer, that obviously used to be two. Kitchen on the right and bar on the left. No real ales on the bar when I visited. Lots of long tables as per usual for a student pub. I've been now, so I'll never feel the need to return.

This pub used to be 2 different pubs (Guinans and McSorleys) but has now been knocked into one. Its basically 1 ground floor room split into areas with a basement part that's used for live music. There are real ales available amongst the banks of student friendly beers. It was much better when it was the 2 pubs.
