Description
It took a couple of tries to be won over by this pub. The exterior and shell is a typical Victorian corner boozer with some fabulous ornate inset windows and small-room layout enveloping a central bar. The place is very sociable with a pool table, and hosting community events. To top it off, a range of well-kept ales keeps its reputation high amount beer nerds. A very good neighbourhood pub.
