The Management * * * *
Linda Lavin is the Boss of this great Toffee Ale 'ouse. She has been in charge for 3 years.
Atmosphere * * * *
Wall to wall Toffeemen. One of the biggest pubs we have visited, & all 6 rooms were packed. Still no trouble getting served. Plus there was a load outside, even though it was cold. But inside boy was it hot. The place was full of discarded coats, scarves & hats.

 

Ale * * * * *
Great choice of ale. 3 lagers, Stella, Castlemaine, & Carlesberg. Guinness, & Extra Cold. Tetley Mild & Bitter, & for the serious juice heads 2 draft ciders, Strongbow, & Scrumpy Jack. Go 'ed! and all your usual breezers & bottles Bud, Becks Smirn Ice etc. The Guiness was 50p cheaper in one room, than in the others.
Music, TV & Radio * * *
No jukey, but background music, but not on match days. 1 Big Screen, & 2 other TV's with Sky TV.
Locals * * *
Tommy Selsby. A top Toffee Pensioner, who has his own seat in the back room, & God help anyone who is sitting in it when he comes in. Tommy refused to take his place at The Christmas party, until the boss got rid of the Christmas napkins, which were red, & replaced them with Blue ones.  
Special Features * * *
4 rooms, pool room, & function room. Quiz on a Thursday, Free Pool on a Tuesday, Live Music most Saturday's. The Hermie has it's own darts team, & Sunday football team .
