Enjoyed our visit to this multi roomed Good Beer Guide pub with it's good selection of ales. We chose Half Moon Port Out and Elephant School (Brentwood) Big Bulls which were both fine.

Olde Tudor building which retains an impressive sense of history and a myriad of tight rooms with original interior beams, settles and scrubbed tables which is described in detail below. To rear left is sympathetically added conservatory style extension and there’s loads of breweriana scattered about. The bar itself is unusually situated in its own little room, so people don’t have the space to hang about in here. Upmarket place with papers and a selection of Newark's moneyed residents you won't see in PoundPub. There is a big food offering here but there were a gratifying amount of drinkers and unreserved tables for the task. Six pumps at the bar, featuring 2x Oakham, Beer Mats, Boss Brewery, Rev James and two ciders. My Citra was in very good nick, purchased after I ditched the Boss thinking it undrinkable (it turned out to be, whilst looking it up on my phone during the Oakham, a cask saison – which is as much use to the world as a marzipan dildo). Efficient but friendly service from the mature barmaid. Assumed this would be a poncey place but I left quite impressed. 7.5

When i first went in this pub it was called The Woolpack,a John Smiths tied house that had no real on on my first visit,but there was handpumped John Smiths bitter on at later visits.
The Prince Rupert now as a different looking frontage to when it was The Woolpack.
Once inside the is pretty much unchanged with quite a few different rooms,there are two rooms either side of the corridor which leads to the bar which is in a small area to the rear,there is an area off this to the left which has normal tables and chairs,there is also another area behind the bar which as more seating.
There was a good choice of real ales on the bar,we had a drink of Oakham JHB which went down a treat,the other real ales noted were Scribblers Beyond Reasonable Stout,Brains Reverand James,there were a coupe more beers i failed to note.
Food seems to be a big draw here with most customers having meals.
The pub was packed on our Saturday dinner visit.
A very pleasant pub that my wife really liked.
