Windmill Inn

A proper Greene King local on Blossom Street with reliable ales, decent pub grub, and the kind of no-nonsense atmosphere where regulars actually know the bar staff.

You'll find the Windmill tucked away on Blossom Street, just far enough from the city centre madness that it feels like a proper neighbourhood pub rather than a tourist trap. It's the sort of place where you can actually hear yourself think—or chat to whoever's next to you at the bar without shouting. The Greene King credentials mean the beer selection is solid and consistent, the kind of lineup that won't surprise you but absolutely won't disappoint either. Food-wise, it's classic pub fare done straightforwardly: pies, proper meals, nothing pretentious. Perfect for a weeknight pint or a Sunday session that doesn't require planning or booking ahead.
