Ah the Barbican. It was a hot day and after leaving our hotel and walking the long way around the dock because the bridge was closed, we came here. I'm sure I've been here before but I don't recollect it. It's a boozer really I guess. Nice.

The pub is found in Plymouth, Devon, PL1 2LS.
Basic old style town boozer with lots of character, on The Barbican. Strange mix of furniture, garden chairs, dining chairs, stools and padded benches. A Plymouth institution.
We have visited this pub 5 times, seen 10 different beers and tried 3 of them.
