6.6/10 β€” Setting 8 Selection 5 Service 7 Food Value 6 Overall 7
Spacious chess bar near the centre. Small selection on tap, but some interesting bottles.

As there are better bars nearby, this is more of a visit to play chess (obviously) or if they have interesting bottles in - I found a new Lervig Rackhouse here.

Large brewpub to the north of the centre, it's a little bit of a trek but worth it. Mostly a selection of their own beers on tap, but they do also offer guests.

No flights, but small pours available (possibly only on their own beers?).

A fairly traditional looking (old man) pub. Decent number of beers available but no idea how quick turnover is. Offers flights (at a hefty Β£20+).

I'd say it's worth travelling for if you've never had beers from the brewery before. Also good to combine with a visit to the sculpture park.

Fairly central, in an area with lots of other interesting bars; the main draw here is the games. It's definitely a bonus to have a varied, exciting beer selection if you fancy pinball. (for shuffleboard, I'd probably go to Roor!)

Worth a visit if you are nearby.
