The Downgate, Hungerford

The previous review was by the owner BTW. Went in lunchtime, pleasant atmosphere, 3 Arkell's bitters available, I had Moonlight, which was ok, but the next one was a 3B, which to my taste was nicer Food, we had scampi and battered cod, both with chips, salad etc. The scampi was pronounced excellent, my cod was ok, had worse, and had better. There are daily specials as well as set meals The coffee was also classed as "excellent" Word of warning, cosy as it is, avoid sitting near the fire in the lower bar, because the raucous parrot makes talking hard work Given it's location I would expect it to be a busy pub in the summer, especially as they have outside seating and serve cream teas as well
