Fair value, not unusual for the area of profile of the pub
DescriptionBerwick’s stalwart social venue, mixing a good range of real ales, live events and cosy space in surroundings of curiosities and local heritage, you’ll spot the dentist’s chair by the bar as you enter, a local legend. Social and democratic, it draws in most of the town and its visitors by doing something most of the rest of the town aren’t doing, which is both sad and a good thing. An essential stop in town.
