Early evening visit. Last orders bell rang at 1905 hours!!!! My beer was served with a one inch parson's collar - very annoying lazy serving.

A group of us met up here for evening drinks. I stayed a bit longer than originally planned as rail services on High Speed 1 were suspended for a while because of a lineside fire. The pub was very busy with a good mix of clientele, and plenty of people eating. I had to ask for my beer to be topped up to a full pint on every occasion.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sharp's - Coaster (or Cornish Coaster) | 3.60 | | This beer is badged as Betjeman Bitter, which according to Beer Mad is another name for Cornish Coaster. A good session beer served in good condition. |
