Review from tantallon.org.uk:
Hook Norton Best bitter, Richard the Lionheart and Wadworth 6X on cask, a dark public bar at the front of the building (crammed with a seemingly quite wide variety of folk) and a much brighter dining area at the back with slightly twee decoration.
Good beer. Top-up supplied with good grace. Crisps. They don't do food on Bank Holiday Mondays though, I should point out. (26.ii.1999)
