Mid afternoon and very busy with the lone barmaid doing a sterling service keeping everyone happy. My first visit to this much celebrated and well run pub needs to be visited by executives of pub companies for an example of how it should be done! Sadly the lack of care and interest of CE's/CEO's etc extends far beyond the pub trade...

Lunchtime gathering with some friends, just us at first but the pub soon became quite busy. A nice pub with plenty of breweriana.

Mid-afternoon. Unfortunately I arrived in the middle of an altercation between the barman and a regular that ended in the latter storming out after demanding and not receiving an apology. The atmosphere was strained and I did not linger.

I really like this pub, a group of us met here for a social occasion. The landlady proudly showed me a Beswick Double Diamond running man figurine that she had just purchased.

A busy Friday evening and my first visit here, I was very impressed with this place, a good civilised place to enjoy a few beers without having to suffer television screens, a proper traditional pub with good service and good beer, excellent. I enjoyed looking at the breweriana and other paraphernalia around the bar.

Lunchtime visit and I really liked this pub, which I had not been in before. A no-nonsense, traditional sort of place. Two large slabs of cheese (Gorgonzola and mature Cheddar) were placed on the bar for customers to help themselves to, and the landlady made a point of urging non-regulars, such as myself, to make sure we got stuck in.
