We went for an operatic concert in the Malthouse, the setting was perfect, very traditional pub decor but not in a contrived way. The room was ideal for the event, quite intimate. The staff were charming and helpful at all times. I will certainly return for more musical evenings. Price per person: £1–10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
