Blackthorn _ left this review about The Charles Dickins Inn

A small and non-descript looking boozer from the outside, it nonetheless extends back a long way and is more spacious that you might imagine. Size apart though, it is still a traditional, no frills boozer with no airs or graces.

It’s a single room pub with the rear section being given over to housing a pool table. The floor is mostly carpeted with some wooden boards around the bar. Pine cladding covered the lower third of the walls and there are a number of beer barrels around including one that was a base for a supporting post. A small TV was up in the corner, but this was not in use on our visit.

There was a tray of sandwiches near the bar which I asked if I could help myself to as I was feeling rather peckish. Apparently I could, which was a nice touch. Whether they were left over from a function, or whether this is a regular feature, I’m not sure. Happy Hour apparently runs from 11:00am – 5:00pm which seems very generous.

Unfortunately there were no real ales on tap. Ciders faired slightly better with both Thatcher’s Gold and Blackthorn being available.
