Great place, lovely atmosphere, lots of friendly people.

Great bar for a pint.

A long standing traditional pub with friendly staff. If you are looking for a simple beer choice, good conversation in a simple local pub setting, the Park is for you. If you are looking for a trendy gastro pub, look elsewhere.

Love The Park. Been going there for many years. A proper pub. Not many left!!!

Lovely old pub. We went to a party which was held up stairs. The barmaid was amazing with the drink service and nothing was too much trouble for her . Forgot to get her name but a big Thank you

I know this local "haunt" very well, but not been there for a couple of years. Interesting place - known as a "scoring" zone (not Soccer) if you know what I mean. Service was not geared to the casual client, guest or tourista, but more suited to the frequent casual and heavy drinkers in the evenings and weekends. "It's a local's local for local people - and there's nothing for the likes of you other lot here!!!" I would get served in about 15 to 20 mins, local's locals service in 1 to 3 mins. But it is what it is. Beer was always perfect cellar temperature, lagers cold and refreshing so the beverages were top notch and the range of beers excellent. The reason I gave this 2 of 5 stars were for the reasons above - huge problem with any local bar, and the fact it's very edgy and iffy as bars go. It just has that atmosphere that if I visited in uniform, half the bar would run out the back door or jump through windows. Photos of half eaten pizza and cheese fries with close-ups of glasses of beer says it all. Gritty Pub !!!

Busy Sat night as usual whenever I visit. Nice quiet back room but you have to carry your beer through (what may seem like an obstacle course) from the main bar! Wet floor in gents toilets but didn't investigate further to see if cause was sink or urinal!!!

Unusual for these days - the pub does not serve food. Pleasant welcoming and friendly bar staff, six ales on offer - good. Not the most comfortable seating for those who are not vertically challenged (low wooden back support). Toilets need updating. Expect very colourful language from clientele.

Good music venue but the room is upstairs, it has a bar. Good Rock Bands play here, a large room with plenty of standing space and seating around the perimeter. The down side is no men's loo upstairs and the downstairs hallway always is smelling of urine.
