ROB Camra left this review about Grapes Hotel
A magnificent Holts's gin palace built in 1903. Four large rooms plus a bar area. At the rear to the right there's a billiards room which no longer has a billiards table, but there is a pool table and a dartboard and a great fireplace. To the rear left is a lounge with disco lights and speakers, also with a fireplace. To the front left is a room with a massive TV screen which was showing Racing UK to half a dozen stalwarts. To the right is a large tap room where 3 regulars and the barmaid were playing Crash. Being a Holts's pub built around the turn of the century there's lots of green tiling as have all their pubs around the same period. They must have bought a truckload at the time. My Holts Bitter was in good nick and at £1.10 is a bit of a bargain. If you're in the area it's definitely worth popping in for look and a quick half, just to see what late Victorian pubs used to be like.
