Description:
Walking past this iconic backstreet pub you would never believe that it offers what is often regarded as one of the best beer gardens in the city. Head in the door, past the toilet hallway, and you'll discover tables galore in what resembles a huge urban backyard. Every weeknight and weekend the chatter of happy punters will fill the air, while the ample food menu (we recommend the tower burger) can soak up the pints. There is free acoustic live music on Wednesdays and Sundays evenings to get the mood going and the old-school front bar is a good place to join the locals in watching the football or cricket.
