picture of The Tom FooleryAlthough this is a Fuller's pub with a decent range of drinks, the prices are rather expensive and in general the place is a bit on the poncey side for these parts. The décor makes it more like a bar than a pub and it's all a bit clean and polished, as well as very noticeably bright. However, the atmosphere is much more desirable than almost any of the surrounding pubs. They've got a couple of plasma screens which can be nice if you fancy watching the sport without it being the centre of attention. And in the summer the doors open across the front but it doesn't amount to much as it's on a busy road and the garden out the back is overwhelmed by the noise of machinery. However, if you just want a quiet drink and you don't mind the cost (or someone else is paying) it's not that bad.
