Went in here to watch the Arsenal match on a dreary August Saturday, only to be told that all half pints soft drinks are £2.50 whilst sport is showing. Management staff were inhospitable, screens were inadequate for showing sport on. Unpleasant visit topped off by staff asking lad to leave when he didn't immediately buy a drink on entering the pub.

Despite it being a quiet Sunday, we decided to take a break from ordering more drinks since we had already paid for drinks earlier. Once we sat down inside, the grumpy owner began to stare at us and make negative comments in a passive aggressive manner. We calmly explained that we had been drinking at the pub prior to his arrival, sitting outside. However, the owner did not believe us and had the kind female bartender inform us that only paying customers could watch the game. After recognizing us, she informed the owner. We attempted to show him our receipts, but he did not care and insisted that we continue to purchase drinks in order to watch the game (Euro qualifiers Denmark v Finland). Despite the pub not being busy, he claimed there was a rule stating that drinks had to be bought every 30 minutes to watch the game. Feeling shocked and uncomfortable, we were eventually asked to leave. The bartender, who was very kind, apologized for her boss's behavior as she escorted us out of the pub. Unfortunately, she mentioned that he was not pleasant to anyone, not just us. This was the worst treatment I have ever experienced in a pub. The staff was friendly, but the owner was extremely rude.

The beers were served in plastic cups. When I asked the bartender why, he seemed offended. I have no desire to ever come back to this place. read more The beers were served in plastic cups. When I asked the bartender why, he seemed offended. I have no desire to ever come back to this place.

Plenty of outdoor seating available for those looking to soak up the sun, though be prepared for some traffic noise.

Has a large beer garden, where you can still see a tv, and super friendly staff. Love it!

It’s a great spot to catch any game, even if sports aren't your thing! The atmosphere is lively and always buzzing with people! After the England vs. New Zealand rugby match on Saturday night, the place was a bit chaotic but a lot of fun! There were empty glasses everywhere, and the bar staff looked a little overwhelmed; it seems the pub might have seen better days. We decided to visit in the evening and tried to order a few pizzas advertised for £3.50 on the chalkboard, but the bartender wasn't pleased. We were told they weren't available and could only know if they were out by chance. When they finally arrived, we opted not to eat them since they were frozen and half-cooked, which wasn't quite what we had in mind for dinner. However, after some teasing from our friends to order food, we realized this place might not be the best for dining! The beer is definitely good, though, and it's still worth a visit!
