Three of us came in here at Noon for a pint and a Thai meal. Good beer and good food in a superb pub, excellent.

Otley - O2 Croeso4.20GoodVery pale in colour with a thin white head. Jason's comment was elderflower and berries, but I am not sure what elderflower tastes like, so I will just say it was a very quaffable pint.

After hearing so many good things about this pub from Whinger, when a friend suggested coming here, I jumped at the chance. The interior really is superb with lots of carved wood and tasteful flock wallpaper. We sat in the conservatory and had a half pint smelling the rather inviting Thai food.

A quiet lunchtime. We had planned to eat here, but unfortunately the kitchen was closed after a fire. Fortunately the drinking areas have not been damaged, and we were able to enjoy some excellent beer from the Redemption brewery.

Early afternoon visit, but we were not too late for one of the superb good value Thai lunches that this pub provides.
