Went down to this pub today while on an important Tiger business trip. Met a lovely man called Bob who happened to serve in Northern Ireland in the height of the troubles (was very dangerous). He was so modest about the experience and hardly mentioned it during the second hour of us talking. Absolutely love the decorations in the pub, the union jacks on the ceiling really add to the tarmac Brexit atmosphere.

Attached is a pic of me and my mate after our pints. Bob volunteered to take the pic as he’s surprisingly ex forces so is good with optical sights.

Had a cracking pint of tiger in there, it came recommended by an ex forces bloke by the name of bob. I spoke to him and his friend Arthur for a good hour. Bob tells me he gets up at the crack of dawn ready for his 5:00am work out. I take my hat off to the guy, a true inspiration for the younger generation. Great pub great atmosphere and nice to see the England flags around the bar, it does make me proud to see them.

A lovely little spot. I went in and asked for a pint of Heineken, before an elderly gentleman named Bob interjected telling me to “stay away from that nasty Eurofizz” and advised I try Tiger Ale. I preceded to buy a pint of Tiger for myself and one for Bob who turned out to be a truly charming local, who, would you know, is an ex-serviceman who served in Northern Ireland and the height of the Troubles (very dangerous!) although he didn’t like to talk about it, a very modest chap.

We sat for hours drinking lovely lukewarm pints of tiger and browsing his archive of Daily Mail newspapers, although Bob had to leave early for his 4:30 am military workout - you can take Bob out the military but you can’t take the military out of Bob!

Thanks Bob and staff for a lovely experience!

Cracking traditional English pub. Very much enjoyed the atmosphere and my visit was made all the better by the presence of an elderly local named Bob, who is evidently a regular. Bob is so humble, and an absolute gentleman, and we talked for hours about the need for a granite Brexit as well as his time in the forces. I must come back again for one of his Frank Sinatra tribute nights. Tiger beer on tap is a nice touch.

Can’t recomend enough. Attended while passing through as I spotted an elderly man in a white vest shadow boxing out the front and I was Instantly intrigued. As I parked up I got the whiff of lager and a touch of a pot noodle and knew I was in for a treat of a visit. Once I entered I was very pleased with the layout and decor. England flags were all over the gaff and it really made me feel like it was a blue passport pub. Bar staff were very very polite, especially dolly, birds are her favourite hobby and we chatted about them for ages. I then encountered the local fella in the white vest. And he made the experience even more sweet, he wasn’t impressed with the fizzy pop I was drinking but I had upmost respect for him as I later found out (after a lot of pressing and work) he was in the forces and he used to dish up wallops in the heights of the troubles, but he didn’t like speaking about it. We also had a passionate chat about football and funnily enough we supported the same team in Leicester city. It made the experience even better if I’m honest. The fella had some great stories about his rover getting him up and down the country! If I remember correctly his name was bob?! Safe to say I will be returning to this pub. The local people and bar staff are really great people and epitomise this great country.

So all in all a great visit. Highly recommend,
Great staff, great customers and great vibes.

Great pub with a nice atmosphere. Staff very friendly and nice selection of beers and spirits. Experience somewhat spoilt by an old man we now know is called 'Bob' who insisted on sitting near us for the duration of our stay despite a foul odour emanating from him. After we asked staff if they could have a word with him and ask him to move he went on a tirade about respecting ex forces men before leaving. Regardless we enjoyed our time and will be back.

Me and my brother fancied a pint after competing in a Ping Pong tournament nearby (Doubles) . We saw the Union Jack flags and bunting outside and decided to go in. Proper old school place. Welcoming atmosphere, real working man's, Brexit voting, salt of the earth, Tiger drinking, hard as nails yet soft as a puppy type place. We got talking to some fella at the bar, said his name was Arthur but we could call him Art. He told us all about his life. All about his wife Susan, his pet bulldog Alfred and his late friend Bob. Apparently this Bob fellow was in the forces in Northern Ireland during the height of the troubles (very dangerous.) Sounds like a top fella. Would have been nice to have met him. Apparently he did a great Frank Sinatra tribute. Great place highly recommend.
