Pub of the Season
Pub of the Season, Honest Lawyer, Scunthorpe
Our Pub of the Season award for Summer
2017 goes to the Honest Lawyer located on
Oswald Road in the centre of Scunthorpe.
The new manager at the Lawyer is Danny
Wilson, who'd been in post for just two
weeks at the time of writing! Formerly of
the Royal Hotel in town, Danny is keen to
continue the progress made recently with
real ales at the Lawyer.
The regular beers at the Honest Lawyer are
Timothy Taylor's Landlord, Sharp's Sea Fury
and a Tom Wood beer (Bomber County at
the time of our visit), plus two guests from
Great Newsome and Axholme breweries.
Weston's Old Rosie cider completes the
range of handpulled offerings.
Chef Trevor Guerin also prepares a varied
range of high quality meals, and features
numerous special food events such as the
recent Beer'n'Bangers festival and a Prince
inspired taster menu (with purple mash
now you ask), and cocktails, both of which
went well. Food hours are Mon &
Tues 1130-230, Wed-Sat 1130-230 & 6-9,
Sun 12-5.
Live acoustic music is featured on the
last Sunday of each month, and Danny
is planning to introduce a board game
night on Mondays and a quiz on Tuesday
evenings. The Lawyer is also now offering
10% off drinks to CAMRA members.
We congratulate Danny and all staff and
the presentation on Saturday 19 August was well-attended
by local Camra members.
