There are six handpulls at the bar, as well as two metal casks on gravity behind the bar. One of the handpulls dispensed cider on [[Ewan]]'s September visit, while the others were a range of small and independent breweries (including Dark Star Hophead, Jenning's Sneck Lifter, and beers from Box Steam Brewery, amongst others). There are also a range of usual keg lagers, as well as Brothers cider (with a range of syrups to add, including lemon, raspberry, toffee and others). |
According to the 2009 Good Beer Guide, they have guest beers on gravity, a pool table, quiz nights, jazz, acoustic, and alternative music sessions, food all day until 9pm, and two beer festivals a year. |

[[Bob]] visited on a Thursday afternoon in October 2008, while there was a beer festival on (festival prices: £2/pint). The beer was pretty good. I got there around 5:30pm and it was full-ish. The menu was a typical chain pub menu, and there were hints on the menu that the pub is part of the Town And City pub company. |

[[Kake]] and [[Ewan]] visited again on a Tuesday late afternoon in August 2011; there were quite a few people in at 5pm, some eating an early dinner. Rock and blues were playing, and the flatscreens were showing sport with the sound off. |

Rock and blues were playing, and the flatscreens were showing sport with the sound off. On a return visit in September 2011, we tried the food, most of which was priced around £6-£9, although they also have a two for £8 offer, which we used to get scampi & chips and sausage & mash. The latter came with three long sausages and decent quality mash with some gravy.
