About This Pub
Ah, Gorse Hill – it's one of those pubs that really comes alive on match days, isn't it? From what I've gathered, the vibe is spot on with friendly locals chatting away and a great atmosphere that pulls you in. The beer's affordably priced with a decent selection, and the staff are on top form, especially when it's busy, making sure you're served up quick as you like. It's clean and tidy too, which always makes a difference for a relaxed evening. On the downside, if you're not there for a game, it can feel a tad underwhelming, like it's just ticking over rather than thriving. And let's be honest, the lack of WiFi and patchy phone signal might leave you a bit isolated if you're used to scrolling through your phone, plus no Sky Sports means it's not the go-to spot for catching all the big matches. Overall, it's a solid choice for footie fans or a quick pint with mates, but worth keeping in mind for what it offers best.

Absolutely banging boozer.
Great atmosphere, reasonably priced beer and friendly locals.
Would definitely drink here again 👌🏽
Great pub especially match days great landlady Claire x
Only been on a match day. It’s fine for somewhere to go for a quick pint before or after the game. Wouldn’t be caught dead in there any other time. Staff are all nice in my experience. No wifi. Barely get a phone reception. No Sky Sports games on the TVs.
Attended a reggae night. The pub looks good. Nice & clean. Bar staff attentive.
Didn't have food.
Decent to visit on match day. Loads of staff on so quick service. Good choice of beer.
