| We were given a warm welcome in this pub after somewhat riskily using some wobbly stepping stones and an icy pair of lock gates to negotiate passage across the canal. There are lots of nice touches - great ales, a cigar bar and a good colletion of ciders and one can browse the papers. A Thursday night quiz provides temptation too. BoehmBawerk - 27 Jan 2013 20:52 |
| Your two comments on this place are poles apart Ernie. Had a bad experience in there recently? davvac - 20 Nov 2012 13:14 |
| If you like dirty, back streeter boozers full of ex-Londoners, this is the place for you. ErnieSkillen - 18 Nov 2012 13:24 |
| I'm fairly sure I've been to this pub in the distant past, but was tempted back by the number 1 rating on here and decent reviews from friends. It's a small 3 room pub by the canalside and next to a lock. There is a front bar, another one to the side and a rear room. 5 ales were on - XT5 American Amber, Tring Jack o' Legs & Riser Bitter, St Austell Tribute & Goffs Summer Knight. In addition, there were a total of 27 real ciders plus a pyder and 4 perries from producers such as Westons, Addlestones, Millwhites, Crossmans, Olivers, Cassels & Tricky. I managed to work through 7 before leaving. I'll have to return to do more. Considering there were so many, I was supposed that most of the ones I tried were in good condition. The 2 guys that appear to run the place appeared friendly and there seems to be a mixture of people appearing behind the bar. The pub also appears to have a varied customer base with plenty of locals, people returning from playing football and a group of rather muddy cyclists were all witnessed during our visit. A nice pub that I can only recommend. blue_scrumpy - 12 Jul 2012 20:36 |
