The barmaid was rushed off her feet and the beer and cider was awful, was a good place at one time very

Went in day. Not a patch on the old place from 10years ago. All of charm gone from back just decking and grey walls. Didn't realise how big place actually is. Difficult space worth a drink or

Was having a good time watching a local band until a drunk idiot decided he wanted to start on someone. We decided to leave shame but if that's the sort of person they want in there good luck

Fantastic upgrade since new management has taken over. Feels like a different pub. Cosy, comfortable and friendly, with a great beer selection.

The Punch Bowl is what I’d term a nicely normal town centre pub. Nothing flash and certainly nothing pretentious, it is however a tidy bar with a relatively plain, modern decor. Service was good and there was a good selection of lagers, ciders etc. There were also the obligatory tellies on the wall and, as we were leaving, a young lad was setting up for some sort of music or karaoke session . As I say - there is nothing flash about this pub but we enjoyed our visit and we would happily use it again.

You are very lucky to get Cheryl and Rob as your next landlords they are a top notch couple and will be sorely missed here at the Brush and Easel. Karen, John and Hoober, please respect them and their work ethic.
