Seem to remember a good pub being mentioned on a thread a month or two back – just can’t find the thread.

It struck me as strange because it was always a ‘desert’ for good drinking establishments in my day. Anyone recollect the name of the place?

Thanks

bree louise?

Has a MASSIVE array of real ale, dead frienly landlord, A bit rough around the edges inside but a laid back feel which means having a few alone before catching the train is no sweat.

Do you mean he pub famous for ales? If so it’s the Bree Louise

Bree louise is indeed fantastic: great beer, reasonable prices and friendly people. Only problem is its normally rammed any time I want a drink. The Doric Arch just outside the station is really quite good too, bit grim inside and next to the bus station but the beer is excellent.
