    Staff need retraining, especially the older barmaid. I was in there on Tuesday with my wife and daughter (24 yrs old by the way) when my daughter was asked to produce ID for proof of age. The fact that she was only drinking Coca-Cola anyway wasn't even considered!! I've visited many times over the years but I won't be coming back any time soon!

    I really nice venue with lovely little rooms. Very well looked after, friendly hosts and a reasonable price acting as a good competitor to the local wetherspoon on price and a better location. Furthermore they play the footy. Brewery need to pull their finger out and get the coffee machine fixed.

  • 4/5 Julie N. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely atmosphere in the old bank. My only rant would be. A famous grouse whisky was ruined because the lemo that was added was flat. It did get sorted right away once the problem was brought to light.

    This place has had a massive makeover since I last visited some years ago & I don't mean all flash & tacky, its just a real oldy worldy look & feel with the wooden panelling & bar etc, done in a tastefull & quality way. Great efficient & friendly staff. Haven't eaten here l so can't comment on that yet. It's become a regular of mine now.👍

    Nice pub, decent ale, only ruined by an obnoxious so called manager, rude and arrogant. If i could give zero stars i would, definitely a pub to avoid i'm afraid

😐 It's a Spoons. Cheap (not as cheap as it was) and almost cheerful. Pleasant enough when we were last in. Food was on the good side this time but I suppose it depends who's in the kitchen. We've had some of our better quality Spoons meals in this one. My pint this time was actually very good being Br...
