Beer First…read moreVery Well Kept Ales., as a Regular i believe it is now a Bass, Bass Red Amber Ale @ £3.10 a Pint.
Plus Two well Selected Guest Ales for the Beer connoisseur {presently each at £2.80 / Pint} These Being [at the time of Review], *They alter 1 - Mallards 'Duck n Dive' 3.7% Golden Hop
2 -
Vale Hadda's Winter Solstice 4.1% (Copper)
The Environment :
Clean Lined at front, at bar.
Eating and Relaxation zones to each side.
round to the right-side of bar to rear, you come to the Eating Area., airy and comfortable.
beyond [outside at rear] is a raised Patio that has been used to Site a Marquee, which serves as Weather Safe Outer-Area and also a Wedding [post bar and reastaraunt] collection area, suitable for general mixing, photo's etc.
Garden Zone :
a) to the rear-side of Marquee is the Ducks and Rabbits area, that the kids will be very fond of, keeps them entertained, as well as Parental/Adults alike.
b) the seated/garden area has kids play equipment and park-benches for outside weather warming quaffing.
c) front of Pub to car-park zone are also wooden seating.
it is here i personally really like,
right by the side of the road!
The Full Moons Main Feature [Village Character] You enter the village by a Lane, and the Pub sits by the 'very under used Lane' where you can sit Front of House, and imagine a Cart to Roll By any minute!!
The exit from the village, is again by a Lane.
If you then so wish.
From here you can go 1 Riverside., to a well situated, but [in my opine] a lesser quality Public House, But Luvverly Situation.
2 Go to Southwell, where you can continue your Ale-fuelled revelry.
3 Find other local-village bars of note [ie, Bleasby], but your own discovery is this option.
pps., i cannot assess the 'nosh' as i havnt imbibed as yet. by all accounts very good.
