What people say

5 out of 5 stars

“What a place this is. The list of beers on the chalkboard is so long and so often different week to week that I find I spend so much of my time here staring at the menu with my mouth slightly agape. When I do finally decide on what to have, the beer is always served in a clean glass by a friendly person and at the perfect temperature. A special mention goes to the absolute legend who occasionally keeps a few chocolate bars in the fridge for (superior) cold-chocolate enjoyers, such as myself.”
