Popped into this place a couple of times since moving in around the corner. Needs a lick of paint, but they keep a smashing pint of bitter, and the landlord is a Scouser ex-roadie with a tale or two to tell. Very welcoming. I’m surprised that more money hasn’t been invested in it though given its fairly salubrious location.
Any comments, stories or other info about this pub?

I particularly like the nice decor above the urinals - a print out from Internet Explorer (with URL) of a photo of someone dive bombing into a jacuzzi.
Weep, for it is so:

Surely it's where ordinary folk from the SG Upper East Side who can't afford wine bar and restaurant prices in CE go for a few beers, nothing wrong with that. Always a good pint, I wouldn't say it was expensive.
I agree the surroundings somewhat reminiscent of the lower decks of the Dublin-Holyhead ferry after a particularly rough crossing, you wouldn't want to get too close to that carpet.
I am amazed they have a web site.
