> Lovely Guinness Bar with great atmosphere and old English style decor. The food was basic and more like pub meals. They sell alcohol free Guinness which was a big win for my English husband!, Ting Ralph, 4 months ago
> Staying in Airbnb nearby. Went on steak special night. Ordered ribeye medium. Unfortunately the kitchen could not get it right. Kept telling them I ordered a medium steak not rare. Fries and salad were good left the steak. Enjoyed the beer and atmosphere. Would never eat here again., shanesardar, 9 months ago
> Great spot for a drink and pub meal by the fire(if you book ahead). This pub was walking distance to my accommodation and I dined here 3 times during my stay when it was really cold with fresh snow on alps. Love the staff and the atmosphere Food was tasty, Linda P, a year ago
