Review:  


Popular downstairs pub below ground level with a small bar. The pub has a small dining area just off the bar with tables and chairs and a raised lounge area with plenty of comfortable seating. There is a small partly enclosed lounge area near to the bar with additional comfortable seating and also some high tables and chairs.

The pub is bright and airy with a pleasant atmosphere. There is a large plasma screen in the centre of the bar that features all live sports, with live football and six nations rugby covered. There are also two TV's in the corner at either end of the pub.

Regular music is on play at most times with a juke box located to the left of the bar. There are also several games machines on display. The pub is very popular at a lunchtime with mainly shoppers. There is a mixed clientele of business people, locals and shoppers in the evening. It is also very busy on match days with the football crowd. The pub has a cosy atmosphere and during the week it is a good place to relax and enjoy a pint. No children Monday - Saturday. A board is displayed in the pub welcoming Norwegian tourists with the message "Velkommen vare Norse venner". Cash machine located close to the bar.

Disabled access difficult as the bar is down a long flight of stairs. Toilets at the bottom of the stairs are small and reasonable.
 


Price: Moderate.
