a big +1 on what papa41 wrote below. If I lived nearer this would be my local.
This area's come on a bit in recent times which is evident from pretentious bars scattered around St Johns Hill. The Bee Hive bucks this trend though. It's a proper well kept old fashioned down to earth boozer. It's obvious from the friendly atmosphere that the Beehive has become a social hub for an eclectic mix of regulars who appreciate the quality beer and honest surroundings.
The Beehive stands above the other pubs in the area by being brave enough to maintain traditional pub values; great beer, friendly atmosphere, old fashioned duke box and the bloke who runs it couldn't look more like a pub landlord if he was Al Murray's long lost brother.
Fantastic little pub. Great find.
