Great pub, good choice of beers set to a retro type vibe, love it. Staff were friendly, food looked good and beer was cold.
I had no idea what to expect about Tom's apart that it sold real ale and pizza. Walking upstairs above a charity shop, you can hear the buzz off the music and voices. Tha bar has a great selection of ales and choice of pizzas. The prices aren't cheap but still didn't put me off as this is usually the way. The venue has a great vibe with people of all ages just enjoying a beer and food. They also sell tee shirts with there logos. I would definitely recommend this place to stop off for a great pint and fantastic atmosphere.
A surprising entry to the CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2025. A very eclectic establishment upstairs tbo an open bar Good real ale gets them into the guide. Jorvic bought me the Rooster's Yorkshire Best. Casta ordered a pizza. Good but the base was too soft, he likes a well done crispy base.
Can't go wrong with major toms! Been coming here for absolute years and love that it hasn't changed much. Great selection of drinks, delicious pizzas! Love it when there's live music but otherwise you'll never get bored with all of the boardgames on offer!
I had a lovely pint of beer as I waited for our pizzas. Lovely selection of beers; tasty pizzas and great music being played. Most enjoyable.
