Nicely bad. Found their audience. Can’t charge phones for some reason they really don’t like it. Bar service is fine and the ambiance works for the audience. No need for the almost-dominant euro-pop music. Dreadful pub will 100% visit again.
It's a pub full of 'characters', but not intimidating. Great for people watching! A human zoo. We loved the friendly staff and enjoyed being called "darlings".
Used to visit here a lot and staff were always a good laugh. One woman behind the bar though has an attitude problem. Spent about £60 quid in there then couldn't find my pint so asked at the bar. Was told it was 'down the sink' as I had been outside having a smoke. Asked if I could have what I paid for and was told to jog on in essence. Shame because I liked the place but will spend my money elsewhere in the future.
A nice little pub, that is not normally packed with the younger uni kids.
Nice pub, just a bit sticky floor and tables
