Quiet and relaxed in mid-afternoon.

Quite crowded here in the early evening, especially out on the terrace. By luck I managed to get a table by the window.
Samuel Smith's - Old Brewery Bitter | 4.00 | | A rather lacklustre beer. |

I moved on here with the CAMRA group and was not the only one to shun the real ale and choose one of Sam Smiths better quality (and much more expensive) bottled beers instead. We liked this pub and lingered here. I made my excuses at about 9:15 and left the group to the remaining three pubs on their list.
Samuel Smith's - Taddy Porter | 5.00 | | Poured from a bottle. A decent enough Porter. |
Samuel Smith's - Old Brewery Bitter | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

This pub has had its ups and downs since it opened in a former warehouse in 1990. The lowpoint being when real ale was withdrawn for a few years. Currently popular and busy, and perhaps at its best on a sunny Sunday late afternoon.
Samuel Smith's - Old Brewery Bitter | 4.00 | | Distinctive, creamy Yorkshire ale, on good form here, if not really to my taste. |

Evening visit. Did not take to this pub - not sure what it is trying to be. Several tables I tried were mucky with liquids. Soon drank up and left.
Samuel Smith's - Old Brewery Bitter | 4.00 | | In fine form and no problem with full measure. £2.90 pp |
