About This Pub

Ah, The Castlefields – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper community spot, you know? From what I've gathered from the reviews, it's got this welcoming atmosphere where the staff go out of their way to make everyone feel at ease, and the pints are spot on, especially if you're partial to a good John Smith's. The jukebox adds a fun touch, turning it into a great place for a casual chat or even a bit of a sing-along with friends. On the flip side, it's not the cheapest option around; a few folks mentioned the drinks being a bit steep, which could add up if you're settling in for the evening. Still, if you're after a handy spot near the shops or car park for a quick bevvy, it's well worth a visit – just keep an eye on your wallet and the opening times to avoid any surprises. Overall, with a solid 4.1 rating, it's clear this place has its heart in the right spot, mixing that traditional pub charm with a few modern quirks.

Busy pub opposite the car park. Also on the way home from shopping in the town. Very handy for a quick stop off on the way.
