Located in trendy and buzzing St. Michael's Hill—it's very steep and you'll need a drink after you've tramped up here— this popular, unpretentious pub has its own brand ale on tap, regular locals and a bustling atmosphere. The beer gardens are open all year, but naturally those who prefer their drink unfrozen stick to the summer months to go al fresco. Traditionally decorated with the usual commodities of pool table, cigarettes machine and arcade games, this pub is particularly popular with 30 year-olds upwards, especially post-graduates and doctors and nursing staff from the nearby university and hospital buildings, who appreciate its mellow and traditional feel.
