The Cock, Baldock

A pleasant little pub with two rooms, one either side of a chimney with fireplaces, although they join back together again at the bar. Nicely aged, with tiled floor, curtains and bits of polished brass, and a good outdoor drinking area with shelters in the yard behind. It could do with some better beers, with just GK IPA and an indifferent Old Speckled Hen on, but otherwise a nice little pub.

Small, traditional 2 roomed pub with yard to the side in nice town. Wooden floors, beams, dark, typical old style pub chairs & tables, unspoilt and relaxing. Light poppy jazz in the background. 4 real ales.

The Cock is a good looking red brick 17th century Inn tucked away on the Tree lined Baldock High Street. Internally it retains the traditional beamed pub interior with split level drinking areas and an open log fire.. Then outback there is a very pleasant enclosed outside drinking area with wooden seating. Another of the Green King empire, but as well as having IPA and Abbott as permanent ales, other changing beers from the GK stable (XX Mild for my visit) as well as two true guest beers are available. These were two from the Moorhouse brewery being Witchfinder General and Black Cat Mild, and the Black Cat was a well kept pint. Found this to be a very pleasant comfortable pub with well kept ales.
