Andy C Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 If it's real ale to take home you are after, then the Archer Road Beer Stop is always a good bet. It's a specialist off licence, with shelves and shelves of bottled beer crammed into the little corner shop! They also do a good continental selection too, and if you are drinking the same night, they do handpulled ales in carry out cartons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In days of yore I and a mate lived on Abbeydale Road opposite Lowes, and we were perennially skint ....... take out cartons, and sat on the corner with pint pots filled from said cartons ........ and it was by far the nearest Wards outlet I think the nearest would have been the Priory Inn (possibly the Crown or Bridge), and the easiest the Barrel, but Small Beer (as it was) was the best! I miss proper Wards so much ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy C Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Also at Archer Road the owner and staff know their stuff and will happily suggest beers or discuss suitable choices. Back on topic, the Strongarm was going down a bit too well on my last visit to the Dove... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkcin Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Just a thread to say that this is an excellent bar/pub Went in tonight with a mate. Plenty of cask ales on the go, as well as draught beers. Without doubt the only bar I have ever been in that only plays decent music. My mate requested a few songs, and although they didnt have any Dream Theater, they played the requested tracks straight away. Will definitly be going again, superb pub.
