Visited: Multiple times
Accessibility: Level access from the rear car park. Dedicated disabled toilet (RADAR key) near the back door; key available from the bar. Inside is generally spacious but can feel tight when the pub is busy.
The front of the pub sits directly on the main road with no stopping options, so parking round the back is essential. The car park can be very busy, and although there are disabled bays, they’re often occupied. Once you’re in, access into the pub is straightforward, and the dedicated disabled toilet near the rear door is a real positive.
Holmbush is a staple for Eric, and the staff are universally friendly — consistently warm and welcoming on every visit. It’s a large, lively pub with plenty of seating and a broad menu. Portions are generous and the food is classic pub fare done reliably well. It’s not trying to be quirky or atmospheric; it’s a practical, dependable place where you know exactly what you’re getting.
Overall: A friendly, reliable pub with easy rear access, a proper disabled toilet, and consistently good pub food. Parking can be tight, but the staff and straightforward atmosphere keep us coming back.
