Ideal place would seem to be the Green Dragon; it has a garden, it backs onto the canal so plenty of room to spill out, but... it is closed at the moment and being refurbished, They have extended out the back (eating area?), new roof going on and are due to re-open in March. Hopefully it will carry on with it's traditional ales. Jo phoned them and they were keen to have us She may be able to give more details.
The Green Man has good beer (Green King IPA & Cumberland Ale wre both good :hic: forgot what the other beer was ) and pub food (nothing special but good for the price), downside is it fills up with the football croud on a Saturday leaving little space for others.
There is plenty of mooring within a few yards of either pub so looks good.
For Banter records this can be declared as a mini banter With Jo & Wynne, David "Grace & Favour" & Josi, myself and my mate John (a local boater) in attendance
PS I'll keep popping back to try the Green Dragon when it opens
