...for some of us (me included...). a decent beer would be welcome, rather than some fizzy orange whip that tastes bland.
In which case you want either the Anchor, or the Wellington.
The staff in the Anchor will usually let you take your bikes through to the back garden, if there are not too many people in there and there aren't too many people in your group.
I hadn't been to the Anchor for a few months until last week. I forgot what all the fuss was about, until someone bought me a beer. I was expecting it to taste like, well, just beer. But 'just beer' doesn't normally make me say "Fuuuuuucking hell! That's fucking nice, man!"
It is a bit of an old man's pub though, which some people might not like. And Critical Mass seems to end up there every time.
