Quite busy for a Monday evening – nice enough weather for the balcony to be popular.

St Austell - Proper Job4.50AcceptableDisappointing golden beer – cloudy and over-chilled. Yeasty flavour with strong hop tastes pushed to background. Not a patch on what this beer can taste like. Just about acceptable.

Very busy, but this is a big pub with bars on three levels and it can soak up a lot of people.
