Timothy Taylor - Landlord4.30ExcellentWe were en route to York, but I knew there would be no time for the pub, so I rewarded myself with a taste of God's own county. Best pint of Landlord I've had in ages. Seville orange marmalade,black pepper.Magical.

Filled up rapidly for Sunday lunch. Popular with drinkers and diners.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Jennings (since closure now brewed at Marston's) - Cumberland Ale4.00ExcellentI've never really thought much about this beer, but in fact it's pretty good:a barley coloured "northcountry" best,prominant hops through the sparkler,a malty finish.

Timothy Taylor - Landlord4.30GoodHas Landlord changed? I've drunk this a few times this week and couldn't really enthuse over it. Tired comes to mind.

Cosy front bars, with rear laid up for dining. Beer range a little less adventurous now, but a welcome relief from the A1
