V. G.

Nice local pub. Dog friendly with a huge garden. Pool tables are only 50p a game which is unheard of these days. My only gripe is that it looks very intimidating when groups of locals are stood right outside the front door smoking. Why not designate a specific area away from the entrance

P. H.

Lovely friendly venue. Casino tables supplied for a 21st Birthday .

K. L.

Nice pub and staff. Cheap Pool at 50p a game and two tables to play with.

C. C.

Great staff Great atmosphere and normally have a bouncy castle up and good play area for the kiddies

M. S.

Frendly proper family pub good beer and great garden for kids

H. B.

£4 pints, but a nice outside space with good areas for kids during the day/afternoon. Signs are very clear that the kids have to be out by 9pm so also free from kids screaming in the evening. 2 pool tables in the back are good too, though at a pound a pop are a little pricey.

L. H.

Thank you for today Sue. So lovely sometimes a kind person is all you need on a rubbish day.

A. E.

Was nice to drop in finally for a beer. Hopefully the weather will be better next time and we can have some food too.

D. R.

The land lady wasn't very happy in a miserable mood and the way she spoke to people wasn't nice

Thus pub has been in many hands over the years. These owners have transformed it into a trendy pub with families in mind. They have finally got rid of the "death trap" bouncy castle, and replaced it with a wooden sturdy climbing area with slide. It is amazing, really good size. Then at the back they have 3 goats. The kids can get crackers behind the bar to feed them. Really good idea to keep kids amused while mum and dad have a drink. They have done a paint job inside with trendy "library themed" wallpaper. Also, the pool tables have been replaced with shiny new ones. It is a lovely pub to visit now. Well done to the new owners.

Very pleasant staff cart help you anoufe.

An amazing place to be , fabulously dog friendly and fun for the kids. Also for adults there are darts and a pool table a lounge bar for adults and a regular bar. I love that u can ask to feed the three goats in the garden,sadly they don't cook food . Definitely recommend going there for a drink.

H. W.

This could be a great place but it has a cold stark atmosphere. It lacks comfy seats/sofas in both bars. It also needs some soft furnishings eg plants, pictures on the walls, & table lighting. It would soften the atmosphere and draw people in who just want to get out of their 4 walls and have somewhere to relax.

W. L.

Good swimming pool good prices just a shame the life guard is a bit of jobs worth telling kids off for jumping in the pool feet first

B. K.

Friendly local pub. Relaxed atmosphere. Good decor, with lovely pool room. Brilliant music video system to sing along to. Nice place to chat with friends over a drink.

M. P.

Went for a party great if you have young kids enclosed space play park and mini goats....2pool tables kept the older ones happy only downside was very small dance area n food area......if they extended into garden where smoking area is would be a great place..

M. W.

Free events room with great outdoor space (very child friendly). Lovely pub, will do again.

D. C.

Great venue for private party. Bar separate from locals bar and access to garden etc. Plenty of room and catering by Georgie Culshaw was very reasonable and great quality. Cant fault at all.

k. s.

Great pint of guiness

T. J.

Very nice range of drinks and very nice people that work there although my dog was very frightened the whole time and they played despacito at least 12 times in a row

T. K.

Pub has reopened and is in excellent hands, great to watch Euro 2020 with large screens in both the main bar and side function rooms.

R. K.

Good little pub somthing for everyone, a relaxing bar to sit an have a relaxing drink, great for familys big garden with lots to keep the little ones intertained. Plus they have Stella an Kroniburg on tap an a pool table if you want a drink with the lads. Not many family friendly pubs about these days so hope it keeps going.

R. C.

It seems to me that the bad reviews are given by people I wouldn't want drinking in the same pub. Yes the Landlady is trying to run a friendly pub and occasionally doesn't take prisoners, but in general the people she is short with deserve it. For instance the chap complaining that the pub says it is dog friendly and isn't was letting his dog run riot, and was asked to put it on a lead as there were children in the pub that were scared of dogs and failed to do so. Also I am a real ale drinker and have never had a problem with the Real Ale in The Obelisk.

N. W.

I visited at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon and it was surprisingly busy although everybody was crowded round the bar so it was difficult getting served. I had a pint of Draught Bass and it was pretty awful, I can't recommend the ale here on that showing, very poor. *Update* Apparently there was a new landlord a few days before I visited so I will pop back to give it a fair chance.

V. P.

Good cider (stowford press on draught). Great pool room with 2 tables. Lovely garden with goats petting zoo for the little ones and a good playset for them as well. Worth a visit.

BRUNG THE BLDY GIOATS BACK. I WANT THE GOATS BAC.

M. B.

I recently visited the obelisk pub which is located about half a mile from the main shopping High Street in Woolston. This pub has been located here for as long as I can remember and still seems to be very busy on regular occasions, the staff are both very welcoming and extremely polite.

S. C.

It's my local. Just reopened. Not cards cash only limited drinks available but hopefully all this will change when the current landlady settles in.

S. B.
