This enormous old pub on busy King Street is popular with locals, students and tourists alike, mainly because the building itself is so ancient and beautiful and oozing historic charm. It's split into four areas, each with its own bar and plenty of nooks and crannies to hide away in. Real ale is big here, although they also stock the usual draught lagers and beers, and food is also served. This includes main meals such as Sirloin steak, red pepper lasagne etc. and bar snacks (baked potatoes, sandwiches and salads). Sunday lunches are also very popular. At weekends in the evening it becomes full of a slightly more boisterous crowd, so if you're after a quiet civilised drink, best to avoid this place Friday and Saturday evenings and try it in the daytime. They also host live bands on alternate Fridays.

Daily noon-11p
