We've been a few times although not very regularly. We went in last weekend as we happened to be in the town a hubby needed a haircut. I asked for a bottle of Porter, of which there wasn't any but the landlord said he could get some for me. We went in today and sure enough, true to his word, was a bottle of Guinness East India Porter, nicely chilled and on the house. Needless to say, I had a 2nd (well it would have been rude not to!)
