About This Pub
You know, chatting about The Fountain Inn, it's one of those pubs that just hits the spot for a relaxed evening with mates. The friendly atmosphere really stands out – it's all about that genuine welcome that makes you feel like you're catching up with old friends, and the staff are brilliant, always up for a chat and making sure everyone's looked after. Throw in the clean surroundings and things like the pool table, karaoke nights, and even bingo on Sundays for a good laugh, and you've got a place that's full of character. It's inexpensive too, so you can enjoy a pint or two without it costing the earth. On the flip side, the beer options are a tad limited, sticking mostly to keg brews, which isn't ideal if you're after something more traditional like cask ales. And it's a bit of a faff not having a website to quickly check details. All in all, it's a solid choice for a good time, but it could do with a few tweaks to make it even better.

Fine friendly atmosphere. Clean and tidy pub with a pool table.
Great pub, fabulous friendly service. We had a family gathering there and they took very good care of us. Highly recommended.
The pork scratchings were first class. The service is simply a joy to behold.
The atmosphere is euphoric.
Great and friendly bar staff. Warm welcome. Landlord and landlady really welcoming. Limited beers but atmosphere more than makes up for this. Karaoke Friday and Saturday. Bingo Sundays... extremely funny golden oldies...make sure you have the next day off... seriously. Nice old fashioned pub, bring your drinking head.
A Small Pub with a big heart.
good atmosphere, friendly landlady, and everyone is made to feel welcome .....more like an old friend.
......Oh and the beer is good too despite it being keg not cask.
I'm sure Nicola would put on cask if there was enough demand.
Overall...as pubs go The Fountain is one of the best. Nicola (landlady) is an example of genuine friendliness, professionalism, curtesy and good fun!
