A place that has definitely resisted becoming modern and trendy, they do great baked potatoes at a good price, and proper pies without frills. Reasonable range of drinks on tap. There’s a front and back area, with the bar in the middle, and lots of picnic tables out front, although the road is a little noisy. The interior is a little plain, but the barman was friendly and the place has the feel of “proper” old pub - nothing more, nothing less.

This is your average old mans pub. It has a pool table and is open late. But it has a unfriendly air about the bar which I don’t like. I use to go there when I worked in Waterloo, but I never really enjoyed myself. They do, do food, which is alright. Nice Sunday roasts but it just has a dark in closed feel about the place.
