Quinno _ left this review about The White Bear
'The best of British Ales' it says on the side. If you think a lacklustre Doom Bar (NBSS 2) ticks that box, then you'll love it here. Comprehensive refurb, likely just after COVID, there's little to get excited about. Sub-divided interior, neutral home catalogue decor. It's not awful, but does little to entice.

A former Marston's house, which was bought by Steamin' Billy in 2016 and refurbished last June. The interior consists of a facing bar as you enter, a good sized room to the right, with the main seating area on the left hand side, with red leather buttoned booth seating along the windows, with various table seating making up the rest of the space.
The interior is traditional with some modern and shabby chic design mixed into the décor. The pub also has a small kitchen, tempting customers with a menu of various burgers. They also have an exterior smoking pit for summer barbequing. Six hanhpumps, two regular from Steamin' Billy, Tipsy Fisherman and Skydiver, plus four guest ales. We went for the Reunion Brewery Incredible IPA and Tipsy Fisherman, both were in great shape.
