picture of Queen Adelaide
The Queen Adelaide is a large Young's pub that has played host to a younger crowd of drinkers for quite a while now. Since our last review, not entirely unsurprisingly, its gone rather upmarket, with an eating area and gastropub food prices now present; words like 'Charcuterie' now appear on the menu, along with an unnecessary 10% service change. There's a good selection of Young's ales, as you'd expect, but we challenge you to find anywhere else which describes Dry Blackthorn cider as having 'bushels of flavour'. Luckily, however, this linguistic pretension hasn't extended to the place being horribly stripped out yet; consequently the atmosphere is relaxed, with the bonus of a very nice garden, complete with 'jumbrellas'. Ultimately a decent upmarket pub, its one of the more pleasant places in the area.

This once great pub has lost its soul. All is now angled towards the yuppies from the nearby Riverside development, yet even they now seem disinclined to suffer its raucous Muzak and inflated prices. The final insult came when the manager decided to ban the Queen Adelaide cricket team and all their friends, thus completing the cleansing of the pub of anyone aged over 45.
only one comment, so far on this pub - why not add your own?
