Saddle Inn, Douglas (Saddle)

The Saddle is a good traditional locals' pub with a loyal group of regulars. The surroundings are warm and inviting and the welcome is heartfelt. As the name suggests this is a pub with strong horse racing ties and Racing UK can often be found on the television. You won't find many Airs and Graces here, but you will discover friendly bar staff and playful banter. There is a lively karaoke night on Thursdays, 'Saddleaoke' which is well supported, and a folk group have recently played there on Wednesday evenings. A third handpump is available for busier periods. Note, a nearby building has been in poor repair obscuring the Saddle entrance, but as the advertisements say, the Saddle is very much open as normal. 13.10.24. The Saddle is one of the oldest pubs in Douglas. Unfortunately real ale has been removed recently...
