This pub was very busy with locals on our early Saturday afternoon visit This is a traditional style pub with some low ceiling beams, an open fireplace, a flagstone floor near the entrance. The main features in here was the snug area on the left of the entrance and a large wall mounted Guinness sign was positioned at the far end of the bar. Further along the wall, hangs a large mirror, which covers a wall hatch, which is used for beer on stillage at beer festivals. Six ales on handpump on our visit, Rufford Abbey General Jack, Bass, GK Abbott, Hairy Brewers Blonde Bombshell, Shiny Disco Balls and Falstaff North Mill. I went for the Blonde Bombshell which was in good shape. Getting out of the pub was a bit of a puzzle if your not a regular as there is a locking key plate on the hinge side, so you try to push the door open on the wrong side. The bar staff watch you trying to work it out.

Large Georgian coaching inn with real ales from Abbeydale, Tower, Dukeries Greene King plus Bass. We selected Dukeries Elsi Pale and Tower East Mill bitter which were ok.

The George and Dragon is a stone built pub and the only pub on bridge street to elude me and the wife,so i had to give it a go.
Once inside the main room is dogged legged in shape with the bar facing,the font area has a tiled floor and comfy bench seating,the rear area is carpeted and has pew seating and normal tables and chairs,there is a raised area to the rear which had darts boards,but could be used as a stage.
There were a couple of TVs showing music videos.
There is also a smaller room to the rear left which is behind the bar.
There were six real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Falstaff Whistler which went down well,the other beers were Exmoor Gold,Bass,Abbeydale Dark Mass,GK Abbot and East Mill bitter,a special brew for the fesival.
I quite took to this pub.
