This is a great pub. The staff were really friendly and seemed to love their jobs. Me and the old man sat chatting to the Welse barman about an assortment of rubbish for a couple of hours before heading to our next stop.
Northumberland - Sheepdog Bitter | 4.70 | | A very good bitter. Fruity with a little floral hop in there. Quite complex and very nice. |
Church End - Einstein A Go Go | 5.00 | | Really pale lager style beer. Quite crisp and refreshing, it was hot so this was perfect. |
