A great pub if you like your conversation to be utterly inaudible due to staff blasting ‘Bleeding Love’ by 2000s warbler Leona Lewis at maximum volume, even in the garden, at 3pm on a Wednesday. Drinks above average price and you will wait an above average time for them, especially when they turn the bar into potions class at two for one cocktails time. Food not bad though.

Meant to visit this place for ages since I've passed it cycling to work couple hundred times few years back. And then the day has come: we had occasion with my buddy to take pictures of just released statue based on 2000AD character. What we didn't think of was the fact it was Mother's Day and everything was busy but we were given small table next to the entrance and Steve has managed to get few great pictures of Alpha. Great looking pub, kinda traditional but with more space and staff would welcome you at the door. Even staff got interested and governor was fan of 2000AD in his younger…

We just had our wedding reception at the Charles holden pub and what a fabulous day it was. We reserved the outside bar and gazebo which was plenty of space for our guests. We had lovely tapas and then mains of fish and chips, beef burger and the mushroom burger which were all delicious and decent size portions. A special shout out to Hannah, Ben and Patrick for helping to organise everything and making sure the day ran smoothly.
