Plume Of Feathers

You'll find yourself heading out towards Little Wymondley, away from the town centre buzz, which is exactly the point. The Plume Of Feathers does that rare thing: it feels genuinely rooted in its community without being precious about it. The sort of place where the bar staff remember what you drank last time, and the regulars have claimed their corners like they've got squatters' rights. The food's straightforward and unpretentious—proper pub fare that actually tastes like someone cares—and the ale selection suggests someone behind the bar knows their stuff.
