Visited here a few weeks ago. Canny little bar and quiet atmosphere with decent music. German Pilsner is £6 a pint which I thought was a bit dear but tasted nice so no real issues. Lad behind the bar was brilliant as well.

Lovely views from the rooftop and good selection of local ciders and cask ales. Live music room on the second floor seemed to feature lots of local artists. The food menu looked delicious but unfortunately we didn’t have time to eat. We’ll be back.

First time here, came for a gig. What a wonderful place. Massive range of drinks. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Didn't eat but had a few excellent pints of Guinness right up on the roof terrace. The pub seems to have various rooms for either a game of pool or a gig (I saw posters for the brilliant Malcolm Middleton gig being held in October). Shame I was only visiting as this place would be a super local.
