I had to choose between here and the Coopers Arms for a final pub visit and dreams of pork pie brought me here. Loved my Pork and Chorizo Pie, but really liked the pub too.

Evening. Who can resist speciality pork pies from Hartland? So greedy guts partook of both Pork & Blue Stilton and Pork & Bury Black Pudding varieties.

A good few in, nice and lively. Saw the landlord at the Derby Beer Festical the next day [qv]!
BeerABVScoreNotes
Burton Bridge - Stairway To Heaven5.00GoodNot my fave Burton Bridge bitter, too strong tasting for me for quite a light ABV.

York (now brewed by and at Black Sheep) - Yorkshire Terrier4.20GoodI enjoyed this. Thought it would be a typical Yorkshire beer in the Landlord mould but actually a fresh, pleasant bitter with pleasant aftertaste and nice aroma.
Burton Bridge - Golden Delicious3.80AcceptableOne of my favourite session ales at a favourite pub, found this slightly off kilter and not as zesty as normal. Not convinced I got the right pint!
Burton Bridge - Bridge Bitter4.20AcceptableNice pint of Bridge. I always find this pint a bit generic though
