As Al says below, much improved from the previous incarnation. At least they now have 4 handpumps. Admittedly all had reversed pump clips on them, so beerwise, not much better than before. The barmaid claimed that they were cleaning the lines, Yeah, I believed her as well. I had a pint of Goose Island IPA on keg which was OK. Still not going to be a regular stop though.

Now called The Old Bank. This has been totally refurbished inside. The servery that was once directly ahead of you is now located to your left and is U-shaped. U-shaped banqutte seating is now where the bar used to be. High tables and chairs are mixed with banquette seating. The pub is still on two levels with the upper balcony level having low tables and chairs. The place now serves real ale with 4 handpulls on the bar with Worthington Cask, Robinson's Dizzy Blonde, Bombardier and Doom Bore available. The place is much brighter than before and the inside grandeur of the place can be better appreciated. Much better than its previous incarnation.

A massive barn of a place that's full of flashing fairy lights at nights. No real ale and the selection of wine is poor as well, considering the name having a poor wine list is criminal. 2 other people in on our visit, both reading papers.

Large cavernous and soulless place.
