The Glue Pot, Swindon

I really don't understand some of the negative comments I've read about the Glue Pot on this site.

I've been drinking here for about six months and genuinely consider it to be the best pub in Swindon. I was mostly working abroad during the previous managements tenure, so I can't really comment about them.

However, Keith and Karen are always warm and relaxed, welcoming most of their customers by name, and creating a true community in the pub. The bar staff seem more like friends then bar staff, and, I've never experienced anything remotely like trouble in this pub. Maybe some drunken raised voices, but, hey, it's a pub!

The Glue Pot is situated in a beautiful and historic location by Swindon standards, and the beer is excellent. As it should be in a pub of this calibre.

Some of the cider can be a little dangerous though...
