Brilliant little pub stocking beers by the leading UK real/craft ale producers like Thornbridge, The Kernel Brewery , Magic Rock and Brodies as well as their own excellent Dark Star beers .

Felipe Paschoal

It's not a cheap place. However, it's an excellent place to enjoy good ales . They have some good options on keg and many Dark Stars on cask . They also have an amazing selection of bottles

Michael Ambjorn

The Dark Star brewery grew out of this place - and whilst no longer located here, they still serve their range. If you're lucky they'll have Espresso Stout , APA - or perhaps The Original on tap .

Dani

Fantastic craft beer pub . Darkstar, Magic Rock Breweing, Mikkeller , lots of lovely choice. One of the local faves, cozy , can be a bit busy

Carl Griffin

Dark Star brewery tap. Great real ales .

Ken Manson

On a Sunday night they don't do any food so the barman let us get a carryout and eat it in the bar . The beer is superb. Both thumbs all the way up.

Bilge U

Wide variety of ales and lagers . It is possible to taste with small shots before you choose. Also cosy place .

Laura Kelsey

Not only does this pub have great beer but it also has a huge range of spirits with lots of more unusual gin choices.

A cool bar judging by the number of hats and coats I see being worn. Don't see it myself, bring sat here in a short sleeve T.
