I am sure the last time I went there it was a Brewers Fayre pub ?

It doesn't appear to be anymore, had anyone eaten there recently and was it any good.

Brewers Fayre have ditched all their pubs which aren't attached to a travelodge/hotel of some kind.

Ember Inns ( M & B) have taken over most of the Brewers Fayres and have improved the food but it is still reasonably priced. The Fox & Hounds at Fox Hill Haywards Heath has been taken over by them as has the Beehive on the A217 Gatwick to Reigate and The North Star Littlerhampton Road Worthing.

I went to Manchester last week as Bens 5 a side team had reached the National Finals at the JJB Soccer Dome and went on the net for Ember Inns up there and they were just as good value for money. Did notice however that beer isnt any cheaper up there now or if it is its only coppers.
