Just on the outskirts of Romsey town centre, and a stone's throw from where Strongs Brewery used to be, we found The Star. A solid, traditional looking pub from the outside, with a certain timeless quality, though looking a little tired. And awkwardly placed, on the corner of a busy road into the town centre.
Three local beers |
Inside is a contrast to the outside, as it appears vibrant, modern, quirky, and very welcoming. The two main rooms have been rather successfully knocked through creating a versatile space. There is a huge fireplace on the right that is a delight to sit in front of on a crisp November afternoon. There were several well kept local beers on offer, and friendly advice from the landlady. We had Red Cat Macavity, Flack Manor Wolfie T, and Bowman's Wallops Wood.
Warm fireplace and folky ambiance |
Small backyard for smokers, and accommodation with breakfast is also offered, so this really does have the feel of a traditional inn.
