Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Sun
Two-room pub / hotel bar, created from two adjoining buildings, with a slightly upmarket yet rustic appearance (if that isn't too big a contradiction), plain wooden furniture, exposed stonework walls, etc. As a Lancaster Brewery outlet, one of the five-handpump banks was dedicated to its beers, from which selection I went went for the Amber (£3.50). The other row featured three Titanic ales, Wainwright and Hobgoblin.

now serves the full range of Lancaster beers at all times -which is a good thing. it's a bit rustic-posh inside, not exactly pubby, but cosy enough anyway. If you want to sample the local beers this is the place to come. But I never seem to be able to warm to the place.

Apparently this is a hotel bar. I must admit that I didn't know this place was a hotel and the pub itself didn't really look like your usual hotelly bar. Two roomed with one room a bit brighter than the other. Bare stone bricks and wooden floored makes it look older than the modern furniture may suggest. Very foodie but a decent selection of real ales make up for that. Lancaster Brewery seem to be to the fore so I assume they may have something to do with the place.
