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.
