Early evening busy in the main bar with the restaurant section deserted. Missed the days when this was the cosy brewery tap not a corporate feeling chain pub.

Second port of call on a bus tour of Hampshire, West Sussex and Surrey. One girl on her own did a fantastic job of serving a round of thirty nine pints whilst remaining calm and cheerful.
