Nice-looking old building, much extended at the rear, but comprehensively refurbished so there is no real character left inside, even in the original part. The interior has also been partly opened-out, but there are still three distinct seating area... [more>] | |

Modern restaurant and bar, with seating areas around the 'U'-shaped gantried bar counter, with the dining areas to one side and at the back. A further 'private dining' room can be found upstairs, and there are also some tables out on the front patio... [more>] | |

Usually busy, as one would expect from a well-placed Theatreland pub, with a small bar at street level supplemented by a side room and the Chaplin Bar (dining area) upstairs. As a Nicholson's, I found the 'house' Pale Ale on one of the six handpumps... [more>] | |

Mix between a cocktail lounge and late DJ bar, with entrances at either end and opened out in the centre around the counter so the first-floor seating area looks more like a mezzanine. Only other feature of note is the pool table. No real ale, of c... [more>] | |

Accurately self-described as a 'Café - Bistro - Tap Room', bringing a Mediterranean touch to the pedestrianised part of the town centre with its table service (both inside the wood-panelled interior and out on the pavement tables) and a free helping ... [more>] | |

No-nonsense town-centre boozer with sports TVs and a semi-modern refurbished interior. Not much choice on the drinks front, although the Harvey's (£3.50) from one of the three handpumps was in good shape. Most unusual feature: a selection of filled... [more>] | |

Superficially interesting, but this old pub has unfortunately lost much of its character. There are still two bars, with the main entrance leading to the smaller but busier one (with a pool table). The second room has a low stage in the corner for ... [more>] | |

Potentially interesting mock-Tudor pub, but looking so run down (with some of the exterior signage missing) I wasn't convinced that it was actually open. However, it was, although equally sad inside. Only one of the bars, a refurbished 'L'-shaped s... [more>] | |

Attractive ex-Courage pub with dark-green external tiling and a semi-traditional, partly opened-out interior. Although on a corner, and with large windows on two sides, it was already getting gloomy inside during my late afternoon visit. However, ... [more>] | |

Very upmarket restaurant and bar (and definitely in that order) in a corner building, now with a matt black exterior. You enter the 'L'-shaped bar that has a lounge-like area along one frontage and the first of many tables laid up for dining on the ... [more>] | |

Excellent micro-pub with quite a traditional feel despite being housed in a rather unpromising modern shopping / entertainment centre unit. Large windows, rustic furniture, a mix of prints and breweriana on display plus good-natured chatter all roun... [more>] | |

Newly reincarnated by the local Elmesthorpe Brewery following its closure as a Wetherspoons, this is a bold step by a small company so I hope it succeeds. Initial signs are good, however, because it was doing very good business early on a Wednesday ... [more>] | |

Reasonable locals boozer located towards the north-east edge of town, partly opened-out inside to leave a 'U'-shaped bar with a pool room beyond on one side and plenty of sports TVs. Given an unfussy, semi-modern refurbishment at some stage, and all... [more>] | |

Appealing Marston's pub, just enticing you to take a look inside. Thankfully, this doesn't disappoint, having a pleasingly traditional interior abounding with sport-themed memorabilia. Although partly opened-out, at least four separate areas can st... [more>] | |

Now a Steamin' Billy Brewing house, this is the first pub you see when leaving the station and it looks good too in its latest guise. Retaining two separate bars, one with two further small rooms beyond plus a larger seating / dining area at the bac... [more>] |
