Visited on a loverly hot day and sat on one of the benches at the side of the pub. The lunch was good (although it took a while to arive).

Banks's - Young's London Original (was Bitter) - previously brewed in Bedford and at Wychwood3.70ExcellentI'd heard rumours that Young's bitter was suppose to taste like this but never found a pint that did. This was a beautiful pale golden brown with a creamy and very hoppy taste to it. There was even a bit of malty depth. If only every pint of Young's tasted like this.
