Different sort of crowd in here. 4 guests on. Ordered a curry but they wouldn't let me have an elvis juice as my alcoholic drink. Ended up with Hazel Jane. The rain meant having to stay here longer. Cheapest spoons I've been in recently.

Marston's - Old Empire IPA5.70Good£1.85 with a token made this a bargain. The sparkler takes away soo much flavour from a beer like this.

These places do have their uses for a beer & refuel stop in the similar fashion to how supermarkets have their uses! I've only listed the beer range available at the section of the bar where ordered.
