256/365 The Old Ale House
Now the City-centre tap for Skinners brewery, five of their ales plus guests (some from casks behind bar), lots of craft beers, west country ciders and several wines by the glass including country ones, no food (can bring your own), good cheerful service, dimly lit beamed bar with engaging mix of furnishings, sawdust on the floor, beer mats on walls and ceiling, some interesting 1920s bric-a-brac and life-size cutout of Betty Stogs, daily newspapers and free monkey nuts, upstairs room with table football; juke box.
No time to visit for a Betty Stogs today. That needs to wait for my next trip.
This fine building was once a millinery, dressmakers and ladies outfitters.
