Ian Mapp left this review about The Royal
Beautifully ornate Victorian Corner Pub.
Inside, decorated to a high standard in the style of a hotel bar. Some very comfy wingback chairs :-)
Open at 10am - does breakfast - but has no cask at all. Usual Keg uninspired choices.... madri, guinness and so on.
Guinness was ridiculously cold.
Still, posher than my house so possibly worth a visit for a pre-dinner drink.

I have visited here numerous times over the years. Attractive pub well described below. Always seems to be busy. My pint of Hobsons was in good nick. Worth a visit.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Old Royal
This corner pub has two very attractive facades with plenty of decorative detail (albeit rather hidden by scaffolding on my latest visit). Inside, the 'L'-shaped bar has been heavily refurbished but some older features such as the coats of arms in the main windows and what looks like an old bar-back on a side wall. Silent sport on the TVs. Mostly older clientele. Standard unbranded M&B menu. I found Landlord, Black Sheep Square 1 and Adnams Fat Sprat from three of the six handpumps, which (while hardly exciting) was better than last time.
