My point is, although the site is called Beer in the Evening, as the blurb says, it is also about eating and socialising . Some people go to the pub to drink. Some to eat. Some to get pissed. Some to merely socialise. Some to read even. It's not all about ale. There are many reasons to visit a pub , and those who visit are entitled to post a review. This does not necasseraly have to include listing all the beers on offer and their condition.

On a beer website it would be good if contributors could say what beers are served and how they are kept!

Food-based pub but you get regular drinkers early evening. Varied menu (changes slightly every day depending what is available). I know this pub quite well. They have two freezers, one for bread, one for chips, and everything else is fresh. Everything cooked to order including vegetables which is why the previous poster might have thought the service slow. Things like lasagne and stew cooked that morning, so things run out.

Worth mentioning there are two menus, the bar menu in the bar and (you guessed) the restaurant menu in the restaurant (which has the starters on it). Strange arrangement since you can order anything off either and eat it anywhere.

Also worth mentioning that if Rupe (the owner) is cooking, then be very insistent about how you want your steak cooked. Twice I've ordered medium-rare and got severely well done when he's been in the kitchen.

On the plus side, everything on the menu is just ingredients and not Brakes pre-packed, so (within reason) they will be happy to add/remove things from your selection, e.g. if you don't like minted peas, ask them not to put mint in them.

Last night 3 mains (rump steak, chicken, leek and ham pie, and something else) plus 2 desserts came to �48.
