Great value pub grub. - review added on Fri 26th Jan 2001
This is not haute cuisine, it is good pub grub. Portions are generous and very good value for money. Being near to the University means that students form a large percentage of the customers. Can be very busy during weekend lunchtimes.

Good value pub food - review added on Thu 18th Oct 2001
Good value pub food in generous portions complement a selection of well-kept real ales (6X, Archers, Strongs and London Pride).The menu and the specials board haven't really changed over the past few years (they've introduced a smaller plate of nachos alongside the original mountain); while a bit of variety would be welcome, this doesn't detract from the food on offer.Can get very busy at lunchtime, and in the evening during termtime.

My Local - review added on Tue 12th Aug 2003
The menu hasn't changed in over 3 years and the beer is ok and the hoegaarden is nice. I wish to see the specials changed and more variety and, as a chef myself, it lacks some good ideas on the specials boards.

Great! - review added on Tue 8th Nov 2005
Haven't been to this pub for quite some time so thought I'd come here with a few mates from work only to find the prices have risen! Well, this came as a shock but luckily they have not sky rocketed and all is well. Great service. Very friendly bar-staff. Food is lovely. Nice to see the specials board has finally changed. Definitely a fave of myself and others.
