点评:The main modern decor bar area with the bar to the right and a seating area to the left. is bright and airy. Then there is further seating in the large conservatory section at the back and beyond that is a really impressive outside garden space which I can imagine is a great outside space for an alfresco pint in summer.
Despite the space in front of the bar that is conducive to vertical drinking all of the inside spaces have a restaurant vibe with the exception of the lounge room to the right as you enter. This is very easy to miss, as I did and didn’t spot it until leaving. This room is apparently the original pub before all the modern bits got added on.
The bar has six hand pumps but two of theses were double clipped providing a choice of seven ales plus a Sussex cider. These were Marble Beers Pint, Lacon's Legacy Pale Ale ,Farm Yard Ales Chaff session IPA, Handsome Blonde, Pictish Alchemist Ale, and two from Vocation, Vocation Bread & Butter pale ale and Naughty & Nice chocolate Stout. I went for the chocolate stout and it was really good.
I guess most people visit here for the food, which I cannot pass judgement on as we didn’t, and for just a drink it’s not really a traditional pub experience ( with the exception of perhaps the small side room). But with the ale range available this is a fine pub to visit for a pint in the garden if and when walking the nearby river valley.
翻译:主要的现代装饰酒吧区,右边是酒吧,左边是休息区。明亮通风。然后在后面的大型温室部分还有更多的座位,在那之外是一个非常令人印象深刻的室外花园空间,我可以想象这是一个非常适合夏季露天品脱的室外空间。
尽管酒吧前面的空间有利于垂直饮用,但所有内部空间都具有餐厅氛围,但您进入时右侧的休息室除外。这是很容易错过的,就像我一样,直到离开才发现它。这个房间显然是添加所有现代元素之前的原始酒吧。
酒吧有六个手动泵,但其中两个是双夹式的,提供七种啤酒和苏塞克斯苹果酒的选择。这些是 Marble Beers Pint、Lacon's Legacy Pale Ale、Farm Yard Ales Chaff session IPA、Handsome Blonde、Pictish Alchemist Ale,以及来自 Vocation 的两款,Vocation Bread & Butter pale ale 和 Naughty & Nice chocolate Stout。我去了巧克力烈性黑啤酒,它真的很棒。
我想大多数人来这里是为了食物,我不能对食物做出判断,因为我们没有,而只是为了喝一杯,这并不是真正的传统酒吧体验(也许小房间除外)。但是,如果您在附近的河谷散步,这里提供的啤酒系列是一个不错的酒吧,可以在花园里喝上一品脱啤酒。
