Pubs Galore - the UK pub guide

A traditional village local, with rendered and whitewashed exterior. It was busy on a Tuesday lunchtime, and after being served at the bar in the crowded front room, I went into the back room to find a table to sit at. The bar had four hand pumps, with Timothy Taylor Golden Best and Boltmaker, plus Ossett Blonde and one pump unoccupied. My pint of Boltmaker was in pretty good nick, and I endeavoured to settle down and enjoy it, but I was distracted somewhat by a table of four Tories. I know they were Tories because they were discussing who they were going to vote for in the election of our next prime minister (which is not open to the other 50 million potential electors), and they were doing it quite loudly. One of them said, louder than ever, "I still like Boris". I didn't exactly splutter into my beer, but they must have noticed a change in my expression, because they half-apologised and changed the subject. I said, "I wasn't listening but I couldn't help hearing", which raised a smile or two. While thus distracted I had drunk most of my beer and completed half of my Guardian crossword. My notes tell me that there's a big stone fireplace to the right of the bar, and the pop music on the sound system was from the 1960s (Something in the Air, I distinctly remember), which made a pleasant change from the 90s and 00s that I'd been hearing in Yorkshire Dales pubs for a couple of days.

The Queens Head is the sole pub in the village of Sedgeberrow. It looks like it had been closed for a few years, before re-opened more as an Indian restaurant than a pub.

With 2 rooms, one is still kept aside for drinkers, with the other being used to serve lovely Indian food (or at least we found it to be nice). A couple of real ales are still stocked. On our visit, they were Sharp's Doom Bar & Ludlow Gold. Staff were mixed. The barman was very friendly and chatty, whilst the two waiting staff weren't quite so friendly.

Only open in the evenings now, at least the villagers in Sedgeberrow still have a local to go to and a good restaurant and take away to boot.

A nicely kitted out craft beer bar, the staff were pleasant and service was excellent. I just found the atmosphere a tad sterile compared to the MicroBus. They had eight ales on tap served from behind the bar. I went for the Deya Love is the Answer Pale 4%, setting me back £5.70 a pint.

A good looking pub, with lots of wood panelling. Sadly the clientele need a serious refurbishment. Called in with Ms CAMRA and the ffffffing and blinding was appalling. Needless to say when the barmaid had to go down the cellar to change the Guinness we wandered off as well. I had been in here a couple of weeks before when there was no real ale at all. This time there was a Wily Fox beer on, but I still didn't get to taste it. It could be a good pub, but they need to get rid of the scallies.

Really odd pub.... certainly doesnt try an woo customers in with its produce, but as the review below states, maybe he knows what his customers like.

No cask. No decent keg.... carling, some sort of smoothflow, I stopped looking. Maybe a Guinness. A couple of keg ciders but I didnt notice anything interesting.

I ended up with a bottle of Holsten Pills.... a drink last consumed in the last century.

A few locals and the horse racing on.
