Bay Horse

The interior of this large Toby carvery pub is very nicely done plastic traditional. Nice beer garden. Worryingly quiet on a Friday evening post lockdown.

Very nice (fake?) antique decor with bare bricks and some rough plaster, and wood and stone flooring, in this large building. There were fourteen real ales on when I visited - sadly I didn't have time to try all of them! The food is good. In my experience, always busy, and deservedly so; a great pub.

A late 60s pub, I think, with a pleasant open light interior. The menu looks good.

A very large pub, nicely decorated. It is popular with walkers on the Coastal Walk. Since my first visit in 1998 it has been somewhat re-modelled and joined the Ember Inns chain.

This pub has a large open pleasantly decorated lounge side, and a smaller and slightly plainer bar side. The menu looks to offer good value standard pub food. Noted closed in 2020.

A large open room with modern decor in this new-looking construction which has retained some old brickwork. There's an open kitchen so if you're there on your own you can watch the food being cooked and distributed.
