Strangely, a Good Beer Guide pub, as CAMRA tends to focus on real ales and you won't find much of that at Quinn's. What you will find, though, is a vast selection of continental beers, around 50 different ones. The ones tried were in excellent condition and properly dealt with and served. It is a big pub, so space is not an issue.

Not sure about food times (Time Out lists the food times as the pub opening hours), but when [[Kake]] visited on a Sunday afternoon in September 2007 (around 4:30pm) they were doing Sunday lunch from the carvery only.

The downside is that this is probably the tackiest pub you'll ever go into: there is no apparent consistent element of decoration, the sofas are bright red velvet and they seem to have picked the worst music published in the 80s to play.

With this in mind, it's definitely worth a visit if you're into continental beers and don't care about the decoration.

Not sure about food times etc, but when I visited on a Sunday afternoon (around 4:30pm) they were doing Sunday lunch from the carvery only.

Ewan comments: I really enjoyed the selection of beers here when I visited in early 2007, and the staff were clearly very knowledgeable. A friend tells me that the goths who have been displaced from the Devonshire Arms (which has gone metal/alternative) are now congregating here, but I haven't been able to confirm this.
