Often a quaffable pint from Hop Kettle Brewers - and if you don't much like sitting on a tube, Stuffers, try @ Red Lion, Cricklade ?Tap & Brew, Old Town, Swindon.
A former shop that has had the interior 'distressed' and high tubular seating with which to view it.
It's saving grace is a myriad of brews that fit comfortably in a pint glass.
I used to frequent the Red Lion occasionally when I lived in Avening. We used it as a meeting point for friends from the Cirencester area and Swindon area. Top pub. Is that your local Elgin?Often a quaffable pint from Hop Kettle Brewers - and if you don't much like sitting on a tube, Stuffers, try @ Red Lion, Cricklade ?
Being 5 miles away, not my local, AP. Like yourself, an occasional punter. Annual beer festival with brewery on the premises is always worth a visit. They are also known to dish out free roasties on a Sunday lunchtime - which always reminds me of the good old days watching the 6 Nations in the Great Western Hotel !I used to frequent the Red Lion occasionally when I lived in Avening.

GWH near St David’s. England games and the Landlord would bring out a large tray of heavily salted roasties - made for thirsty work ! Kerching.Turnpike or the White Horse?
Great Western by St David's Station? Last season we openly laughed at some Bristol Bear fans who claimed the ref cheated them when he gave Exeter that last minute try. Poor losers.
