shame this pub use to be one of the best ,sadly now one of the worstpoor service, the toilet were a discrace not cleaned since god no when,light fittings missing from the toilet so there is little light. I have used this pub for the past 25 years and this saddens me to see such a great pub being left to go to rack and ruin,sad to say i will not be returning in a hurry.I hope the people that own the pub turn it around and make it a great pub again.

i really liek this pub and i agree the roast dinners are really good . its always a nice atmosphere and the bar staff are friendly are there are 2 lovely cats !

I really really like the Blind Beggar and to be honest , I think a few of the people who have written bad stuff about it on this website and others sound a bit disgruntled.



I went in there on Friday night and there are no red lanterns mate. It's just a nice decent friendly local pub with a pool table and a jukebox. A few suits were there on Fiday night but it's just basically a really nice pub. The old battleaxe who used to work there is gone and the barstaff are nice. And there's no Krays stuff on the walls like people keep saying there is!



We have been going to the Blind Beggar for 4 years and it's nicer than ever. You can get your dinner, have a drink, listen to live music or play a game of pool.

Had a very nice night in here last Wednesday, but a strange one on Thursday. Shame there is no food served at night time. The Blind Beggar has very friendly barstaff on the first time we visited but when we returned on the Thursday night, we found the manager to be very rude. After pouring a pint, she stamped it down in front of us , and as we were looking around at the decor, asked us if we were in the right pub!


Seemingly, she was annoyed we had made her get off her chair by the fire where she was having a cigarette. It amused us ever so slightly as we don't know what we had done to annoy her. It's nice for a pub to be consistent and we did not feel very comfortable at the Bling Beggar. We finished our drinks and moved on.

I'm slightly baffled by the review stating the Blind Beggar Sunday meal was bad. My family and I have Sunday dinner here every few weeks and it's superb. If the meat was tough, why didn't this person tell a member of staff instead of moaning about it? And in most pubs, you have to collect your own cutlery and condiments from a trolley or the bar.


I can't fault the food that we have when we come and our children are always treated superbly. The meat and presentation of the food is always lovely. I would not usually post on one of these websites , but I was looking up some pubs to take the kids to and saw someone had written this. The service, food and level of cleanliness is always second to none at the Blind Beggar.

I've been in the Blind Beggar a few times, for a drink or two. It's a fairly nice boozer with decent enough prices and always serves a great pint of lager - which I think you don't always get everywhere. The beer garden is nice in the summer. The Blind Beggar is great for a quick pint.

We recently had a Sunday roast in the Blind Beggar which was sub-standard. The meals were served in what can only be described as soup bowls and despite my asking for only a little gravy on the meat, it was swimming in gravy. The beef was tough and I was unable to cut through with a knife. The service at the Blind Beggar is very poor - when I asked where the cutlery was I was told to get it myself and had to wade through a group of Sunday morning drinkers.


The table was dirty and there were no condiments. When I was asked if our meals were okay I told them and received no apology. In fact nobody came back to us. We left the food and drink disgusted.

I really like the way the Blind Beggar looks & feels now. It's still the Blind Beggar & always will be but at least they're not relying on history anymore. It's a top pub -go there and get hammered.
