Britiannia Inn, Weston Super Mareback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Not the sort of place you would spend a session in but was ok for a quick pint on a pub crawl of the area.
Nice pint of Fosters.
6/10

Extensively renovated and renamed to The Brit Bar since my previous review, it now has a contemporary layout in the �lounge bar� style. There�s a good sized patio at the rear with some covered seating, which was a popular spot with the smokers even on a very wet evening. Barmaid seemed friendly enough and there was a board listing upcoming events, including a music festival over the bank holiday weekend.
Inside, the pub is a U-shape with the bar counter in between. The colour scheme is mostly white and a maroon shade, with some chocolate brown around the bar. Flooring is predominantly wood, although there�s a curious patch of lino in between the two halves, and white venetian blinds hang at the windows. Stylish vertical wall lights provide illumination. The left hand half has a few high tables and chairs whilst the right hand side has low burgundy leather sofa�s. This side also had a pastry counter which was unusual, but I can imagine it being a type of coffee shop during the day.
Beers on tap were Gem (although this appeared to be keg?) and the rather pleasant Golden Bolt from the Box Steam Brewery which I�ve not come across before outside of their own pubs. The solitary cider was Thatcher�s Gold. There was also a good choice of bottled beer.

Has recently re-opened following complete referb. Now more a bar than a pub, though there was one real ale available, all high tables and stools, not to my taste, but at least its open!

Was padlocked up when I walked past today

Decent, tucked away little pub. A proper boozer amongst many of the rather trashy bars nearby.
The lounge area seemed to be more geared up for eating with place mats on all the tables, although no one actually was eating on a recent Thursday visit.
Four hand pumps on the bar, but only one in use dispensing Doom Bar. Also Blackthorn cider.

Quirky little pub hidden away in the backstreets, a real rare find. does good live music and very cheap beer. impressive :)

All the usual strange array of regulars of any small town pub. Decent bar food, excellent beer. Very handy for a decent pint in the interval at the nearby playhouse.(beats queing for 15 minutes for a bottle in the theatre bar)

Tucked away from the main shopping area, this local is worth a visit, especially with a nice pint of doombar 4 �2.00. 7/10
