The Skerries

Walk into The Skerries and you've found the sort of place that doesn't need to try too hard. Sat right on High Street, this is where you'll see familiar faces nursing pints and catching up over lunch—the kind of pub that's genuinely about the people inside, not Instagram aesthetics. The drinks list takes itself seriously without being pretentious: proper cask ales alongside the usual suspects, and staff who actually know what they're talking about. Food-wise, it's solid comfort fare that hits the mark without fuss. You're looking at a warm, unpretentious spot that's clearly been doing its thing for ages, and locals keep coming back because it just works.
