The Trafalgar Hotel, Queenborough

The Trafalgar is a small Victorian pub/restaurant/B&B just off the Queenborough high street area which, on approach, seems a little unwelcoming due to the iron fence at he front and the sunken entrance. Once inside you find two bars, a drinking bar at the front and a dining area at the back. Both are full of nautical clutter, and are conjoined, carpeted and dominated by gaming machines, tv screens showing soaps and a pool table. Despite not being busy, it took a while to get served. There was no real ale on draft, so I made do with a bottle of Masterbrew which the barmaid made a hash of pouring. A karaoke machine vies with the repro fireplace for pride of place at one end, though neither added any charm to the place. Opening times appear random, and while it's not the worst pub in Queenborough, it isn't one to which I shall rush back.
