picture of Rising SunThe Rising Sun is an old and well-worn but attractive, traditional style pub hidden away on a Dickensian-looking alley. Unlike other nearby establishments popular with besuited chaps, this pub seems to attract an interesting mix of regulars. Its a comfortable place with darts and fruit machines up at one end, courteous service and a Tuesday quiz night. With well priced, well-kept Sam Smith's beers, its a good pub if you happen by, and also one of the few places open at weekends in Smithfield.
