More of an upmarket bar than authentic pub,but a very significant session on perfectly conditioned Oakham ales was memorable and fun.The place got more lively as the evening progressed and so did the crew !. A CAMRA discount was applied to all rounds despite only two members present,and free thai snacks were offered up ,both lovely touches.It was a great night,although my head the next day was not what it should be.

Has to be the White Horse in Banbury for me. Beer quality exceptional as always.
