The Physician

A proper neighbourhood bar on South Street where locals actually drink, no frills, just good pints and decent company.

You'll find The Physician tucked into South Street's quieter stretch, away from the student-heavy chaos of the town centre. It's the sort of place where you can actually have a conversation without shouting, and the bar staff know what they're doing. The vibe is refreshingly low-key—think worn wood, decent lighting, and people who aren't trying too hard. It pulls a genuine mix of locals, students who've found something real, and folk passing through, all there for honest drinking rather than Instagram moments. Nothing fancy, nothing trying to be what it isn't.
