It's hard to miss the emerald-green paintwork on the facade on this 'Bar & Diner', but thankfully the Irish-themed interior decor is relatively restrained. Light wood furniture and panelled walls, giving a pleasant feel to the island bar layout with two small raised seating areas at the front. Numerous silent sports TVs with background music at a sensible volume. Pool table to rear. Live music advertised. Small patio seating area at the front. Slightly surprisingly, perhaps, Doom Bar was available from one of the two handpumps (£3.50, and a bit flat). Overall, and despite not getting the most friendly of welcomes from the barmaid, this was a bit better than I was expecting.
