Steve C left this review about The Billet
The Billet is an L-shaped Greene King pub with a central L-shaped bar counter that supports standard and premium keg alongside three hand pumps that were drawing GK IPA alongside Deuchars and a Lilley’s cider. To the left of the bar is a dartboard and a large television that compliments the televisions throughout that were airing several Champions League football matches. The long right-hand side of the pub has banquette seating from front to rear that was being used by a few locals. This pub is a bit out of the way to warrant a revisit.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Billet
Suburban Greene King pub that seems mostly aimed at those just having a drink but a basic food menu is also available. Extended at the back to leave a L-shaped layout, with anonymous semi-modern furniture and decor throughout. Also has a sizeable (if dull) rear beer garden. With all three handpumps in use, I found a surprisingly good pint of IPA (£4.36 with a packet of crisps), Old Speckled Hen and a Lilley's cider being dispensed.

E TA left this review about The Billet Inn
There has been a pub called The Billet on this site since at least 1800, although the current building isn't the original - this one is a large early 20th Century detached building. Previously an Isherwoods pub, it is now a freehouse. There is a single large corner bar with 2 ales on. There is a bit of a 1960s feel to it with its over-loud jukebox and gaming machines and the name etched in the front windows. The staff's attitude ranges between uninterested and indifferent. I had a pint of Hopdaemon's Incubus which was OK but nto perfect. Worth dropping in as part of a crawl or a pint when passing.
