The Horse & Jockey, Whitchurch

A large roadhouse which doesn't look too bad from the outside but seems to have been painted entirely in white inside which gives the whole place the feel of a conservatory. The menu on our weekday lunchtime visit offered unexciting standard pub grub lunchtime fare which none of the other, 3 or so, customers were tempted by. Surprisingly for a GK boozer the handpumps weren't overrun by the usual mood deadening offerings and on our visit the following were on:Three Tuns 1642 and XXX, GK IPA Gold, Stonehouse Sunlander and Woodlands Light Oak. This still left 3 unoccupied handpumps but everything we tried was decent and the XXX would've beaten a GK IPA anytime. Not a bad spot to stop for a pint if you happen to be passing.
