First visit for a while and a bit depressing, much as before but with lousy beer quality on this visit, not undrinkable but it only went down with my tastebuds numbed with dry roasted nuts. Mind you every other bugger in the place was on keg, lesson there guys.

Under new management and the beer range has improved as well as the quality, in addition to the John Smiths Cask you should find Theakstons XB, Taylors Landlord and perhaps Taylors Golden Best. Little else has changed but it's a much nicer place to drink now.

IYBMADIWTY means If You Buy Me A Drink I Will Tell You. You owe me a pint OB. We walked into this pub and the smell of cigarette smoke and sweat hit us as soon as we entered. The other half said "I don't think so, do you" so we left.
