| Strangely, a Good Beer Guide pub, as CAMRA tends to focus on real ales and you won't find much of that at the Quinns. 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. |

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. |

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.

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