Quinno _ left this review about The Railway Tavern

A schlep out to tick a couple of CAMRA Inventory pubs. An unprepossessing exterior but fear not, it’s quite friendly inside (strictly no football colours) with good banter between regulars and staff. Interior is an oblong island bar, original tiled flooring, textured plain artex walls and squared wood detailing. There are sitting rooms off the main bar. Unfortunately it was difficult to fully appreciate because of the COVID garb up everywhere with plastic and carboard partitions like some sort of morgue, but upon peering this is one of the ‘basic’ Inventory variety rather than something to genuinely make you go ‘wow’. Standard Scottish keg selection so a Guinness did for me. It’s not too far from the (more obviously Heritage) Portland so worth taking-in both.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Railway Tavern

Old-school single-storey pub, with a plain but impressive double-sided servery and two door-less snugs on one side. There are also two partitions forming a separate part of the bar along the front counter (beyond which there is another entrance into the intact off-sales area). Traditional furniture and decor limited to a few B&W photographs of the locality. No real ale of course, so went for the Caledonia Best (£2.90). Doesn't appear to be of much interest when viewed from the road, but the Camra national inventory interior is certainly worth a look.
