One to rival The Couer de Lion in the smallest pub in Bath stakes. A friendly welcome from the jovial landlord who was exchanging constant banter with the customers. As the pub name suggests, a bit of a military theme, collections of army and tank cigarette cards, fighter aircraft pictures etc. Poppies sold on the bar. Plenty of Bath Rugby stuff too including a framed signed shirt. I noticed an England signed shirt too.
A carpeted room, just four tables with bench seats and small stools plus a few occupied bar stools although the customers moved aside to allow a view of the beer pumps. Weymouth Durdle Door, Cotleigh Golden Seahawk, Poppy Otter and the rebadged Volunteer Rifleman's Arms Pantie Dropper (something from Bath Ales I believe). Very enjoyable.

There is a selection of beers, not that good when we visited.

Another of Bath's small pubs, this one has some outside seating and an upstairs bistro. There's a military theme to the décor and a large Abbey Ales mirror that dominates one wall. Some small pubs can be a bit intimidating for a stranger walking in but we were welcomed in this one and space was made for us at the bar. Good selection of ales which were supplemented by the Bee Sting real cider, one of two or three they serve I think.
