Graham Coombs left this review about The Museum

An old pub with a rebuilt back end, which forms part of a small shopping development. The interior is a bit jumbled with various pillars and levels but, despite a strong focus on food, it is actually not unpleasant and the punters seemed happy. Being a Greene King pub there is not much ale choice but at least they had Yardbird alongside the Abbot and IPA and condition seemed fair.

Better than your average Greene King pub, maybe, but the beer range is much reduced since I used to come here semi-regularly in the 00s, when I worked in the city centre. In those days the pub was run by Mark Simmonite, who went on to run the excellent Henry's (a victim of redevelopment) and now has Perch and the Dead Parrot brewery. Just three GK beers and a cider on my most recent visits, though to be fair my GK IPA last time and Abbot this were both good quality (NBSS 3.25 on average) though quite a bit short of a full pint. The 10% discount helps but £4.01 for a beer that is nothing like as good as when I used to drink it in the early 70s still seems a bit much. Other than the beer range, not a lot seems to have changed since 15 years ago. It's still pleasant to sit in the peaceful lower room after a bit of shopping in TK Maxx or Waterstones, with the full length windows flung open on a warm day, or sitting outside if that's your thing.

We've called in several times since my last review, we always call in here when in this part of town. Considering it's a GK house they always have a good selection of beer on the bar. The Abbeydale White Christmas was in very good nick. This pub would be a GBG regular in almost any other city.

Called in again to this pleasant pub. The company was good, the staff excellent and the range of beer good as always. It's an oasis of calm around here.

What was once a small pub was extended a while ago into the Orchard Square shopping area, which allows the pub to have an outside drinking area and some extra conservatory like space inside. It's recently been fully refurbished and is bright, clean and airy. As you enter there is a small bar area with some seating and then there is a two storey extension with seating areas both up and down stairs. Several handpumps on the bar from GK, Abbeydale & Kelham Island and I tried a Beer Works Horrable Skellington (sic) which was dark and smooth. The other half had a glass of red wine which she said was good. It's a pleasant pub which is GBG 2011 listed and we'll no doubt call in again soon.
