A great pub, great bar staff, friendly locals live music on Saturdays,and a last but not least a nice pint of Harvey's.

Extremely good music playing on 21/08/25… Every single song for at least the last 5 songs has been a belter. David Bowie - Starman played. This doesn’t take away from the fact that I think pubs should play only instrumental lute music, but if you’re gonna play songs in a pub, ask this pub who governs their playlist Artic monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor just came on…. I’m gonna wait until this song ends then I’ll tell you the next one Here it comes… Bloody ‘ell. It’s ‘Fill Me Up Butter Cup’ by The Foundations. Proper feel good music. Right, next one! It’s ‘Piano Man’ by Billy Joel. Bloody brilliant.
