The only negative is the solitary TV - thankfully with the sound off. 4 Youngs beers on draught and a choice of 15 single malts. Oh, and it is a 5min walk from my house.
P.S There is always a pie on the menu and they have a weekly pub quiz too.
That sounds to me like The Grove ?
You really can't go wrong with a Youngs pub - they're always in tip-top condition and their beers are a delight.
To me they just edge out Fullers but both are excellent brewers.
