Red Lion Hotel

Red Lion Hotel

PortsmouthHampshire

Recommended by E TA

Primarily an hotel and buffet restaurant, this large mock Tudor roadside inn feels more like a chain pub than a local. It's run by Mitchell and Butler, and it's one of their budget establishments. Food is served all day from either the open buffet o... [more>]

SwadlincoteDerbyshire

Recommended by James Past

Visited mid-afternoon, pub busy.There appeared to be an impromptu pool competition going on which added to the atmosphere. Bar staff friendly. Two hand pumps serving Pedigree and Wainwright Amber.The Pedigree was in good nick. An old fashioned dri... [more>]
The Chieftain

The Chieftain

Welwyn Garden CityHertfordshire

Recommended by Steve of N21

Found myself back in the vicinity a couple of Sundays ago and popped in for a quick pint and a bite to eat. Pub unchanged from previous descriptions and two Mac beers on in the shape of their IPA and AK. However, on leaving we spotted a large chalkbo... [more>]
The Malt Shovel

The Malt Shovel

DudleyWest Midlands

Recommended by Steve C

The Malt Shovel is an L-shaped pub with a mix of exposed brick and blue painted walls under a ceiling supported by industrial girders. The parquet patterned wooden bar to the left faces tables that run under the front windows. A television above was ... [more>]
Castle Inn

Castle Inn

DudleyWest Midlands

Recommended by Steve C

It was raucous in the Castle during a recent Wednesday late afternoon visit, in fact it felt a bit like a Friday evening with people dancing around to the 2 tone music in the background. The entrance leads to a beer shelf with stools that runs along ... [more>]
Lansdowne Strand Hotel

Lansdowne Strand Hotel

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Huge Arkells hotel which has had any sense of history ruthlessly eliminated inside. A number of rooms, décor is ‘rustic mimsy’. An interesting oddity were the repurposed metal leaded window panes being used to divide space between tables and create l... [more>]
Piggy Bank

Piggy Bank

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Sort-of micro in - surprise! - part of an old bank. Appears to be a tap for Stealth Brew as they dominated the tap selection. Inside is an oblong room done in red and white with a mish-mash of seating options presumably claimed from seconds and whole... [more>]
The London Road Inn

The London Road Inn

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

60s refit pub which is largely unchanged - artex walls, black painted beams/supports on both ceiling and walls. Two rooms partially knocked-through with a bit of supporting wall left by the bar. Looks NCA on entering, the three pumps are actually in ... [more>]
The Wheatsheaf

The Wheatsheaf

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Basic locals place majoring on music and karaoke. Whacked-through and sparse but retains a couple of areas, smothered by a basic COVID era refit with red, grey and white colours. There’s a pool room to the rear. Two pumps with just Doom Bar on. To be... [more>]
The Talbot Inn

The Talbot Inn

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Seeing as I was in town I decided to trudge out to the periphery to see how this one was faring 8 years on. The previous vivid interior has been blandised, with an unappealing battleship grey and white gloop applied alongside the occasional bright li... [more>]
The Jenny Wren

The Jenny Wren

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Flat roof estate pub. Dark and gloomy inside with terrible spot lights and a COVID era painting-over with a dark green/blue colour making the atmosphere mildly oppressive on a dark grey afternoon. The fake beams offered some light relief. Pool table,... [more>]
Dog & Partridge

Dog & Partridge

CalneWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Formerly the Bug until mid-2023, this has been refurbed and modernised in a predictably bland manner – the bar is duck egg blue and everything else is white (including the beams) which on a wet grey Saturday late afternoon felt awfully depressing. I ... [more>]
The Mallard

The Mallard

ChippenhamWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

A modernish Waddies close to the MoD’s Lyneham training facility which I presume it was built to serve it. Two rooms within, all cask is located in the right-hand side main bar. Four of Wadworth’s own, the Horizon was slightly pump tired but decent (... [more>]
The Five Bells

The Five Bells

SwindonWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

Almost ten years to the day since my last visit. Unfortunately the place was rammed and I was forced into standing in the COVID-upgraded garden. I did note that there appeared to have been an application of gloomy paint inside, as it felt less homely... [more>]
Cross Keys

Cross Keys

SwindonWiltshire

Recommended by Quinno _

The old coaching entrance has now been cleverly converted to be the main hallway/drag with a pseudo room at the end and other actual rooms off the side; the bar is on the left with serveries either side. No cask on the road-facing side but a token Ab... [more>]
