The Cock & Hen (formerly the Cock Tavern) serves a selection of wines, beers and spirits. Bar food is available and vegetarians are catered for. They also have Sky TV showing major sporting events. Outside dining is also provided.
Formally The Cock this pub has just relaunched as The Cock and Hen and is now vying with the Arbiter as my favourite local.
The Cock and Hen has a good selection of local and lesser-known beer, including the fruity Bonobo, and the better known Budvar and Erdinger.
The menu also looks promising. On two recent trips I've found myself left out of the conversation as I salivate over the food on offer. I haven't sampled any yet but when I do I'll report back.
Another big plus for the pub (forgetting some odd plant pots with lights in!) is it's small, terraced beer garden. I guess a lot of places will be sprucing up their outside areas in preparation for the smoking ban, which can only be a good thing.
The icing on the cake at The Cock and Hen is the customer service. The staff are very friendly which makes the pub very welcoming - why can't all pubs make you feel at ease like this?
Is The Cock and Hen better than The Arbiter? I'm torn, but if The Arbiter opens it's promised roof terrace I think it might maintain the accolade of my favourite local.
