The Church Wicketts

Walk into The Church Wicketts and you'll immediately clock this is the real deal. Church Road's got that quiet, residential vibe, and this pub sits exactly where it should—the kind of place where regulars have their spots and the bar staff know what you drink before you ask. It's unpretentious stuff: good cask ales, straightforward pub food, and an atmosphere that's genuinely relaxed rather than trying too hard. You're not paying through the nose, either.
