Just stay away from the vicious bird... In Southampton I prefer the Dancing Man, which has only been a pub for a handful of years, but is housed in a building nearer to 700 years old. They brew on site, and it's really good stuff!

> the Dancing Man Good pub, still refered to as "the wool house" by most locals. Surreal to see disccusion about pubs in Southampton on hackernews this morning!

  It is! My excuse is that I lived there for about 9 years, until a year or so back :)

    Very surreal, I'm going back 23 years and only because I'm hoping that no one will remember those days.

      If you were a student then, I might've bumped into you over a Juicy Lucy in Jesters...

        I wasn’t quite and lived in London, we just came to the Red Lion for weekend benders

        Ha, I was a student there at that time too. Spent my evenings down the road at the Dungeon though ;)
