    more ugly ducking
    Current
    Less swan than ugly duckling, this venue is for those who want over-priced with the taste of watered down beer, and vicinity for sports sports sports on the numerous tvs that surround.

    The w/e crowd are the larger than life whatever is the sport of the moment supporters. Loud with a pint glass in one hand and the other free to make air jabs of success/support or hide mortification of being 'down one nil again' game watching.

    If your idea of fun on a saturday afternoon is being surrounded by drunks, burly doormen and tv's turned to over-LOUD then this is your crowd. In need of a decent pint, and to be able to talk and to hear your neighbours? i'd avoid.

    Still great fun if you're on a stag do !

    Recently had a re-furb, so smokers are now 'out back' rather than out front. something for everyone then.
