Staff regularly serve out if turn which, apart from being an irritation, causes arguments between customers. As its very busy of a weekend the place is often untidy with beer spills on tables and empty glasses left laying around. Don't risk the real ales if you are used to a good pint as it's terrible here! Which is especially disappointing for a company priding itself on using locally sourced ales. Breakfasts are ok and are the only thing other than crisps, nuts and the occasional plate of chips that I will eat here. 3 out of 5 due to being a good place to start off and meet up with a good selection of draft beers, lagers and fully stocked bar.

They were unfortunately out of fish and chips. So we bought a drink. There was a fish place across the street so we asked the Bartender to allow us to eat some in the sidewalk dining area which he allowed. The drinks were great, we ordered a second, as we're the fish and chips. Next visit we hope to try this establishment's fish and chips.
