About This Pub

Ah, The Stirrup Cup – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From what I've gathered from the reviews, the staff are top-notch, always ready with a smile and a helping hand, which really sets the tone for a relaxed evening. The place has this great big open area that's ideal for catching up with mates or even hosting something special like a private function, and there's loads to do with the pool table, darts, and other games to keep everyone entertained. Plus, they've got a solid range of beers and drinks that hit the spot after a long day. On the downside, it seems like food options are a bit up in the air, especially if they're still sorting out after that refurb, so you might want to grab a bite elsewhere first. And without a website, it's not the easiest to keep tabs on what's happening, but with a solid 4.3 rating overall, it's still worth popping in for a pint and seeing what all the fuss is about – I'd say give it a try if you're in the area for a no-fuss, friendly night out.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and really helpful, making you feel welcome right from the start.
  • It's got a fantastic atmosphere with a big open space that's perfect for a good chat or unwinding with friends.
  • Plenty of entertainment on offer, like pool tables, dart boards, and fruit machines to keep things lively.
  • A great selection of drinks, including guest beers, well-known lagers like Carling and Fosters, and even Guinness.
  • The pub is spotlessly clean, which always makes for a more enjoyable visit.
Cons
  • It's not clear if they serve food, especially with mentions of a refurbishment, so you might need to plan ahead.
  • No website means it's a bit tricky to check out details like events or opening times online.
  • There haven't been many recent reviews, so things could have changed since the last ones were posted.
