I was a little startled to find a bank of handpumps covered in Lilley's fruit cider clips, but luckily the barman saw my confusion and admitted that they did have IPA on but had "lost the clip". It transpired to be the Rhubarb, in case you wondered. Anyway, despite being Greene King it felt like a proper pub and the IPA was about as good as it could be. Adequate.

Greene King pub with a couple of drinking areas to the front of the pub near the bar and a slightly larger room at the rear.

Abbot & IPA are the real ales. The other 4 handpulls were clipped with Lilley's cider, which were all dispensed from boxes in a fridge - Cherries & Berries, Tropical Cider, Mango Cider & Rhubarb Cider.

It was quiet for a town centre pub. When we left, I don't believe there were any other customers remaining, unless they were in the outdoor courtyard.

A 10% CAMRA discount is offered, but only on the ales. A little disappointing overall.

Still as described below, this remains a lively local, unspoilt by its proximity to the main shopping area. The atmosphere was convivial, helped by robust banter from the young males and Dolly Parton on the jukebox, the latter helping us keep abreast of things as the TV was switched off. Two gaming machines entertained the more excitable clientele. Only one ale on, Abbott, which was in average condition. Craft ales were Level Headed Giant's Session IPA and Flint Eye lager, plus there was Amstel, Madri, Guinness and two Lillie's ciders. Food was standard GK fare at higher than average prices. A decent enough pub when in the town centre.
