Good for relaxed work drinks and better pub food 1st September 2008

I used to work for a company round the corner from Bennetts, and so used to come here a lot for work drinks. The crowd is generally professionals, and the atmosphere is relaxed. It can be hard to get a seat at busy times so people tend to mill around the bar. The prices are pretty standard. The food is actually really rather good for pub food - the chicken pasta is great, as is the vegetarian lasagne - and not over priced at £7-8 for a main dish.

Don’t sit by the entrance at the back of the pub – it is constantly open as used by smokers and it gets very cold and draughty! There is a nice separate room at the back of the pub which is good for sitting and having lunch in.
All in all, a good pub, a bit like an upmarket wetherspoons type with decent food and a trouble free clientele!
