When this seen-’em-all pub and music venue successfully campaigned against proposals to transform it into a gastropub at the end of 2009, its PR war relied heavily on its heritage.

Having hosted live music since 1963, the Half Moon named but three groups in its plea (the Rolling Stones, U2 and Kasabian), thus covering five decades in a perfectly concise way. You won’t see anyone as famous as that lot here today, but there are still notable shows from old-timers to be found in schedules rich in acoustic music and singer-songwriters.

Nudging your way to the bar, you’ll find Young’s ales, served by staff adept at pouring promptly before and after gig time. Food’s a bit of a moot point but there are basic pub meals, weekend breakfasts and Sunday roasts.

I eat here a lot as it is our local pub and generally find the food very good. I like this pub a lot since it was refitted, the staff are super friendly and now recognise us as regulars, the wine list is good and I understand from my husband the beer is good as well. I do have one bug bear which is for some reason they are terrible at cooking chips, they are always dry on the inside! Please head to the prince of Wales in Pitney guys to take note if what chips should taste like!!!

Lovely decor and a nice atmosphere, but I'm afraid the food was so awful I'd struggle to return. A chicken and tarragon burger arrived lukewarm, and served with garlic mayo in a sweet brioche bun?! I'm not averse to trying exciting and new food, but this was obviously just a mess up with the ordering, and tasted downright strange. A friend was served some pasta sauce in a teacup as 'tomato soup'. Another's was cold in the middle, with a similarly meagre portion size. Unimpressed, guys.
