Reviews
"A great pub with lovely bar staff. Went there to watch a six nations game and everyone was very welcoming."
"Really cosey pub with a decent selection of ales and ciders and hosts some wonderful woofties aka dog friendly."
"Staff were friendly and welcoming.. Wasn't for us but personal choice of others.. Just on a back street in Weston-super-Mare about 5 minutes walk from the beach near the lifeboat launch"
"A little gem of a pub located behind the main stretch of the seafront, often missed. Obviously a locals pub but definitely a good thing. The landlord has a keen eye for quality and service which reflects in the beer and service on offer. Very friendly environment and welcoming. They have events and entertainment on offer. I would thoroughly recommend popping in! I'm very glad I have"
"If you're not a local, or not following the Cask Marque Ale Trail, you are going to miss this place - and that will be to your disadvantage. The atmosphere in this tucked away local tavern, is the definition of good cheer, geniality and bonhomie. Off the beaten track, it is easily missed and those wishing to experience an atmosphere of genuine cordiality, miss something that the English pub is all about. This is just the place where I would bring American, or any foriegn tourist to see an ideal version of how we do things in Britain - I just wish every local pub was like this and I also wish it was my local. Those with an interest in history, will be interested to know this is one of the oldest buildings in the town. The late Victorian building eventually evolved over the years from a lodging house into a pub. The interior has some regional importance being almost unchanged since the time, the main interest being the impressive old curved counter and the fine mirrored bar-back. Snacks are available and the free cheese and nibbles on the counter on Sundays, is not so often seen now-a-days. And, being on the Cask Marque Ale Trail, the discerning imbiber can be assured of a perfect pint. This reviewers opinion of the Tribute (St.Austell Brewery 4.2%) was in perfect condition. K, the landlady, like many of the patrons, was affable and interested in any new faces. Well worth more than just another visit."
