It's kinda "damned if you do, damned if you don't" with these things. But someone should have read the adjudication by the Portman Group's panel before commenting, as it is a model of rational...

I agree there are some horrors there. But there are a few where the innuendo or offence is only in the mind of the beholder, or in this case the person that added them to the website.

For example,...

You betcha!

Top quality stuff, from Mrs as well as Mr Winfield.

That review was written when it was called The Hand. It seems to have gone downhill since then, if your recent photos are anything to go by.

You may well be right, though I think other breweries do plum porters too. Big Bog do a Peat Bog Porter, made with sphagnum moss erm, liquorice root.

What a shame! It was a great idea.

They're not in the "awaiting approval" queue, so it looks like they've been "referred to admin". Some photos have been stuck there for years.

If you think they're a bit dark, you could try doing...

I can certainly endorse that. The Devonshire is a cracking good pub and is not at all far from the station. It is a Milton brewery pub, with seven of their beers on when I was there, plus a guest...

Nice one Richard.

Which reminds me...

When Camra reassessed their heritage pub interior inventory they introduced a new listing called OCR - outstanding conversions and restorations (Here's an example: The Angel)....

You could be right.

The Micropub association lists 373 such pubs. Pubs Galore lists 879.

I apologise for being so helpful. :p

I had a look at the one that Tris mentioned : The Englefield

The heritage link has gone, but so has the WhatPub link. I tried to restore the latter, but it failed to paste. (WhatPub has it as...

Thanks Dave. I've just deleted and replaced the WhatPub link at Craft Lincoln successfully. Even managed it on a train with no WiFi which is a first for me.

Well done, DAVE!

I reported it here quite a few months ago. I even wrote DAVE in large, bold caps, but it's still happening.

That was pretty rude at the time and it's certainly good to be reminded of it.

Apologies for seeming to want to have the last word. Also known as being happy to continue the discussion. Can anyone...

I'm pretty sure hopeless is not the right word. But you don't see many banners on pubs saying "last 16 in Pub of the year 2023", etc.

I agreed that impressions vary. And your experience and impression of a pub are just as valid as my own.

Even if I were stood next to you at the bar, I couldn't experience the pub exactly the...

Whereas I found it difficult to navigate, with a bottleneck at the bar counter, which is squeezed for room, and people always trying to get from the front to the back, or vice versa, past the queue -...

Wow! When I saw the title of this thread my first thought was that they should name a pub after the Hatters after that brilliant equaliser in Friday's game at Burnley.

Truth stranger than fiction...

I wasn't impressed with the beer on either of the occasions I've visited. I guess it must have been better on several hundred days in between.

I won't be attending on the chosen day as there is a Leeds Rhinos game that evening, but I have a visit planned to Cambridge on 28th & 29th February and 1st March, and hope to do all the pubs that...

Not your type of pub, maybe. And certainly not mine. But we're not the only people that browse this site looking for pubs, so I can't see Dave agreeing with the proposal to



I agree with...

Certainly is!

I wasn't aware of Popworld until you mentioned it. I can go back to that state of bliss without requiring anyone to mess with the list of pub names.
