Now open, after a takeover & light refurb.
12 ales on tap. Abbot Ale, HPA, Butty Bach & Town Crier plus 8 guest ales. Good range of lagers & ciders for those who like that stuff!
Food starting Nov 5th, hopefully the pub will get back to the busy place it once was; Mike (the manager) has worked hard to get it running again.

The Fountain has been taken on by Westbourne leisure and plans are for a local brewery to run it. Hopefully it will be open again soon!

This is another famous real ale venue as noted below. It's a single carpeted room with the bar at the centre of it. There were nine hand pumps on my visit which were all in use. Beers available were Hobson's Town Crier, GK Abbot, RCH Pitchfork, GK Old Speckled Hen, Red Lion White Lion, Pictish Crusader, Abbeydale Nativity and Oakham Crackers. I went for the Abbeydale Nativity (£2.95) which was in excellent condition. It's a very good pub and would recommend it but not one of my favourites on the day, maybe the Greene King beers put me off a bit.
