The Duke Of York Inn

If your into people watching you could get your PHD here. Everything from Students to bar-fly's and everything in-between. Some good pool players and some really fantastic regulars. Landlord Andy runs a tight ship and keeps the druggies to a minimum. My kind of place. Not a place for real ale drinkers though only Doom Bar rest is Worthington's or similar.. Oh and they normally have a good singer or band on Saturday nights. Only downside is they put the football on the TV's but keep the juke box on (I am sure this is the barmaids and some locals who like the music) surely if your paying for Sky and Sports channels you ensure the punters can listen to commentary as well? But this is a minor quibble and overall it's a great no frills pub.

When it comes to decent pubs there aren't many but the duke of York..The thing that brings me back is the staff.. some of the greatest people I have ever met.. I know previous owners and tbh I was just cash to them.. the latest owners are brilliant! wether it's a chat you need or a kick up the but lol they will always make your visit enjoyable! I don't rate the duke because it is better then other pubs.. I rate it because it is a mile better then anything close!
