Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great evening to see ‘Two of Diamonds’ play for a couple of hours. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and customers. Will visit again. Thanks for a great night.

Sick to death of listening to the clientele of this place being calm and having a mellow time. It's massively improved and our love of the garden in the evening knows no bounds. The landlord's dog is a real character and will greet every customer as they enter. Lovely, amiable people. Complaint going into council about Snake Eyes not being on for several weeks but the selection is always great. Between them and the yums from Anatolia our lovely quiet area has begun to boom. How beer gardens were ever approved in a residential area is a miracle.

Sick to death of listening to the clientele of this place yelling and screaming. It's completely ruined our enjoyment of the garden in the evening - can't even sit and watch TV with the patio doors open. Not only that but the owners allow their dog to constantly bark. Selfish, ignorant people. Complaint going into council. Between them and the racket from Anatolia our lovely quiet area has gone sharply downhill. How beer gardens were ever approved in a residential area is criminal..

Awesome spot for a quality drink with a great range of beer, gin and more. Classic chalkboard available telling you all about the beers so you can make the best choice. Really well done inside with plenty of character in the decor etc. We loved it and will be going back!

Amazing little bar, with the best selection of ales in town. The recently developed outside seating area is a great addition

This pub is described as a 'micro pub' but it is more spacious than other micro pubs that I have been in. There's a snug and a library inside in addition to the bar area. The snug was nice and warm on a cold night thanks to a log burning stove. Very tasty selection of cask ales at a variety of strengths and styles and from a variety of breweries. There is a good selection of wine and spirits. Very pleased that there the keg offering included lager as my wife does not drink ale. Ambience and service excellent. I will return!

Been here many times with work.
Nice atmosphere and friendly people. They have some incredible beers on if you hit it at the right time. Due to location it sadly has no beer garden and lacks seating. However that’s not a negative and there’s not a lot they can do about it.
Will continue to return for a few swift ones👍

Great place for me to go for a quiet drink with lovely beer, friendly staff and my kids love the range of lemonades. Wide range of ales lager and gin. Ideal for pre dinner drinks.

See title... very friendly staff who are happy to advise on the range of drinks they offer. Something to cater to all tastes. The owners spend a lot of time seeking out breweries and there’s is always something new to try. And it’s very dog friendly (the hound leads us to the front door any time we walk past).
