My first time in a pub in Stafford, but being with two friends, one of whom I had not seen since before the coronavirus pandemic, I did not take the copious notes that I would normally have made with this review in mind. Suffice to say that this is a Titanic pub, with six of their own beers and a guest, plus the Everards Tiger which signals this as a Project William pub; though my Stafford friend suggests that is no longer the case and the Everards beer is more of a courtesy or gentlemen's agreement. Whatever, I enjoyed my pint of Tiger, although it was not as good as some I have had, and my companions on their Titanic beers were not effusive in their praise either. Having recently had a couple of poor beers in the Brunswick Inn in Derby, another Project William pub, the thought occurs: are these pubs putting on more beers than they can sell? To be fair, none of our beers were actually "off", but being used to drinking in pubs where the licensees are careful to watch the quality of their beers and the turnover, I am aware more than I used to be of the difference between beer that is just ok and that which is excellent. This was just ok.

A very good pub as most Titanic houses seem to be. Also like some of their other pubs, 6 guest beers compliment 6 of their own beers.
The pub was all White on the Night! with the White Star and the White Rat both being excellent.

The Titanic pub at the southern end of the town centre. Externally it looks like a number of buildings that have at some point been knocked together to form this quite large and impressive pub. Large rambling interior over a number of rooms and levels, with the bar on the right as you enter. Modern fittings but traditional in manner. Middlingly busy on a late Thursday night. Quiet pub, just conversations and no muzak or bleeps. Friendly staff and punters. 12 pumps, all of which were on - 6 Titanic brews and guests. Everards spotted so assume this is a Project William pub (it is – 2010). I tried the Captain Smith (excellent shape) and Plum Porter (good). All-in-all, this is a really good pub and it’s worth getting off the train for. 8.5
