Long Pond

Nice little micropub close to Oxleas Woods. Doesn't look like a pub from outside, but don't be put off, the landlord is friendly and the beers very welcome after a wander in the woods 🍺

"Tradiional" format micro pub but with an additional room with normal chairs rather than tall stools, They have a house best bitter called "Pond Life" and a fair selection of other draft beer. Do big jugs. Friendly staff.

Nice little real ale pub and very welcoming. Plenty of space inside and I didn't get the feeling I was an intruder entering a closed club which seems the standard for real ale pubs at the moment.
Definitely will return when I'm next in the area.

Ok, so hands up, I do like a micro pub and a locally brewed real ale! The Long Pond gets a big tick in all these areas. Great to see a community pub full of locals on a Sunday lunchtime, buzzing with chat. Good selection of beers and friendly staff

Great small pub with local ales that rotate frequently and are reasonably priced. However, this means that sometimes it’s pot luck on weather there will be an ale you like if you don’t enjoy bitters as the other ale styles available rotate with the menu.

Fantastic local micro pub with a wide variety of beers available at keen prices. Light lunches, and occasional live music available.

Cosy pub, nice environment, good beers.

Great beer and customer service. You can buy and take away kegs of 5 litres. Can drink from the keg, don’t need any machine.
