The two old buildings that make up the Narborough Arms have been opened up, with beams and pillars appearing to be of some antiquity, though whether they originally belonged to either building is another matter. The half-timbered building on the left might be the older of the two, and has a large bay window that reminds me of the Cheshire Cheese in Buxton. The building on the right is much plainer, though there are some bits of old windows that have been preserved in internal walls that may indicate that there were formerly other doors to the street. The bar counter runs most of the length of the back wall, with five hand pumps and numerous keg taps. Greene King IPA and Abbot Ale were available, but I went for St Austell Tribute, which was served in one of those strangely narrow half pint glasses that look as though they would be very easy to knock over, though I never have done so far. The beer was in very good condition and service was friendly and welcoming. There's a Camra members discount advertised, 10% off the price of a pint, though I don't try to claim it these days - mostly because I drink halves when out and about. Not really my sort of pub, with some pretty awful background music, but with car park, food and accommodation available it is bound to be right for some.

Been going now for the last year and the food is an excellent standard and such a reasonable price too. However we went today and the food was of a poor standard and the menu which has changed was lacking in choice. I hope this isnt a sign of things to come. We will give them another go as they may just have been having an off day.
