Having a night out round tarn on saturday for first time in a couple of years.</p> Anywhere to avoid?</p> Anywhere serve real ale?</p>
Gatehouse (old Devonshire, near train station) Court House (bottom of Regent St) Joseph Brammah (Market Hill next to Lloyds Bank) All do real ale although I havent been in the Court House since the refurb. Where to avoid depends on what you want to avoid.
Courthouse since the refurbishment I've been in & they still serve real ale. More often than not it's just the Theakstons range but I was in last Saturday & they had Caledonian 80/- on too. Generally it's brighter & cleaner than it was before but the beer's more expensive.
RE: Courthouse since the refurbishment </p> In fairness it would have been a struggle to get it any dirtier or duller! It was a right shithole. If the increase in beer price reflects the amount of money that place needed spending on it, it'll be more expensive than Blah Bar!</p>
Nowhere is more expensive Than Blah Bar! I went there on a leaving do from work recently. Having gone there from the Bramah, I almost cried when asked to part with £3 for a pint of John Smith's Smooth. A vastly inferior product at almost twice the price I'd been paying earlier!
