A little trip back in time… 📸

We stumbled across these old photos of the pub and honestly, not much has changed (apart from the bin bag out front and the buses getting an upgrade 😅).

Back when the streets were quieter, the pints were just as good, and this place was already doing what it does best — bringing people together. Generations have passed through these doors, from quick after-work halves to long nights that turned into even longer mornings.

Same building. Same spirit. Just a few more stories added along the way.

If these walls could talk… 🍻

There’s a reason Guinness isn’t just a pint, it’s a ritual.
The slow pour. The settle. That first creamy sip.
Rich, smooth, perfectly balanced — exactly how a proper stout should be.
If you know, you know. And if you don’t… it’s time you did.

Guinness. Done right. Served here.
