Running Horse Live

You head down to Radford and find yourself in one of those pubs that hasn't tried to be anything other than what it is—a place where people actually want to be. The Running Horse does the live music thing without the pretension, hosting gigs that feel like they're happening in someone's front room rather than a venue trying too hard. With a solid 4.6 rating from regulars who keep coming back, it's the kind of spot where the bar staff know what you're drinking and the crowd's there because they want to hear the band, not because Instagram told them to.
