The Devonshire Arms

I've had two very different experiences of this pub in the last week, and felt compelled to write my first ever review on this site (sadly, not a good one).

Great traditional pub, all the staff are great, nice little beer garden and the variety of drinks is spot on. Nice place to go to after a walk down the river park, then off to the chippy on Denmark street. Réservez une table maintenant
