I guess there's always the Clockhouse, although I feel that it is without atmosphere. Hey ho.... Each to their own, but I have to say, Grolsch, Stella, Carlsberg, Carling, Adnams, Broadside, Speckled Hen, Strongbow, Guinness (and extra cold) is about as good a selection as you'll get anywhere else. Also, whilst it's not the most flashy by any stratch, "spit & sawdust" is definitely not fair. A couple of people have said things about walking in and feeling like the piano player has stopped playing in a western saloon... I am a local, so don't experience that, and sorry if people do feel that way. The staff are absolutely lovely though, and all the regulars are nice enough, even if a couple are a bit rough around the edges.
