Came here with a group of friends at around 1pm when we found the Palmerston Arms so full one could hardly get through the door. Just as busy here, but very efficient service.

One of only four Milton linked pubs in the country felt great as you walked through the door it's the sort of place you feel George Orwell would have approved of dog and child friendly, stranger friendly also.

The pub is found in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, PE2 9BH.

As a boozer it's the business with 8 handpumps, craft brewed lager, dog friendly, child friendly. Was a Grotney's pub but the Red Barrel ghost was carted off to brewers' hell.
