What the guides say

“A classic-looking 1930s-built boozer, here you’ll rub shoulders with local chefs, grown-up indie sleaze icons who’ve decamped from the Spurstowe Arms, and long-standing regulars who’ve seen it all.”

Time Out (#15) ↗

“If a pub clears its memory-stained maroon-carpeted floor, pulls down the projector, and allows anyone who’s several pints deep to murder ‘Hanging On The Telephone’, then you should be there.”

The Infatuation ↗
