Description:
The old Commercial Hotel has undergone a complete change since Geoffrey Hartridge made it the base for his 5 barrel brewery and gave it a trendy new name. Now reverting to a more customer friendly name of the ''Old Comical'' as all the locals know it. Now plenty of wood and stone floors; benches and memorabilia. The skittle alley alas is no more and this rare pastime is no longer available on the Island. Outside is a large garden with kids area and a petanque terrain. Conveniently places is a public car park right next to the pub. Other treats is a large outside area; happy hour 5-7pm daily and live music Friday; Saturday with open night Thursday.
