Review:  


A medium sized pub on two levels that has the main bar downstairs with a function room catering for Live music upstairs. The pub is bright and airy throughout with large glass windows to the front.

The main bar has plenty of seating with tables and chairs around the front and high leather backed seating to the rear. There is a modern style to the décor with pastel red and gold colours on the walls and a wooden and stone floor. The walls are also adorned with pictures of celebrities and television personalities. There is Live sports shown and karaoke evenings advertised. Live bands also appear every Tuesday night and usually at weekends. A DJ is a regular feature on a Friday from 7pm - midnight. Free pool table.

The pub is busy during lunchtime and is mainly frequented by the business crowd, locals and also people from the TV studios. It has also been known to attract celebrities. It often gets busy at nights when live music is featured.

Disabled access good. Toilets are small but in good order. Visit the pub's own web site at www.egyptcottage.co.uk
