Terrible smell of urine and BO inside! Food nothing like what I had ordered. Everyone smoking and vaping in the non smoking outside space. One of the worst pubs I have been too in 40 years. No one cared Avoid if possible. Worst basic real ale beer choice than in my Wetherspoons local in Essex but was cheaper and OK quality. It was quick but definitely get what you pay for.
