Horse Brass Pub

Portland


Portland's most established English pub, cherished for its dark-wood atmosphere, excellent fish-and-chips (or try the artery-clogging scotch egg) and nearly 60 beers on tap. Also serves 'proper' 20oz imperial pints. Play some darts, watch soccer on TV and reminisce about the days when you couldn't see across the room through all the smoke.
