A proper pub, owned by the Brampton Brewery. Nothing fussy about it but some nice beers of their own plus guests. The sort of pub you would be happy to have as your local.

A good traditional drinkers pub this one with a friendly and welcoming barmaid. You can see that this is a well run pub as everything is spotlessly clean and the beer quality is sublime. Small features in here, was the green tiles along the bar front, plus coat hooks and the counter top was in oak. The handpulls were ceramic with the Brampton loco and a chrome base. Eight handpumps, four from the Bramptom Brewery and four guest, we went for the Brampton Golden Bud and the Brampton Captain Marsden.

This mid-terrace pub on the Chatsworth Road is tied to the local Brampton Brewery thanks to Everards’ Project William scheme that was also used to set up their first pub - the nearby Rose and Crown. The entrance takes you into a wooden floor, bare brick wall room with the servery on the right hand side. In front of the bar is a small seating space with just about enough room for a fireplace, whilst beyond the end of the bar counter there is another similarly sized seating section with a couple more tables. The left hand side of the pub has a carpeted, lounge bar feel to it and would almost certainly have been a separate room in days gone by. There is another, smaller fireplace in here as well as a good mix of seating including some rather nice looking leather banquettes under the front window. An old John Smith's pub sign hangs in the rear corner and suggests that the pub used to be called The Terminus. Music played quietly throughout my stay and I couldn't help but notice posters for Monday's pub quiz which explained that the winner would be given a gallon of ale.
Eight hand pumps were dispensing Brampton Impy Dark, Wasps Nest, Tudor Rose and Golden Bud, Everards Tiger, Sambrooks Junction, Townes Chesterfield IPA (£2.95) and Raw Blonde Pale Ale. The cheerful barmaid poured me a pint of the Chesterfield IPA which was in good condition, if not really to my taste. As Quinno notes in his review, this is more of a drinker’s pub than the Rose and Crown and I think I enjoyed my time in here more as a result.
Another fine pub for Brampton to showcase their beers and one which I would be more than happy to make a return to. Maybe I'll have a go at winning that quiz next time.
