03/09/24 - 3 handpumps, 2 turned round. One saying coming soon: Coniston Bluebird
No cask ale as of 20th Jan 2022 which continued well into the year, but as at 08/10/22 we received the following report - "Real ale reinstated and sampled last night, with two from Bedlam Brewery. Benchmark, the other forgotten."
It became a Hobgoblin around 2008 but in 2012 changed name again to The Fallen Angel. Closed in the summer of 2013, re-opened as a craft beer pub operated by Barworks, in May 2014, reverting to its old name, Three Johns - who were three 18th century radicals. Cask plus lots of craft keg and a huge range of bottled beers.
The pub now has a very impressive copper tiled ceiling, it's a vast space with two separate areas (the smaller back area is available for private hire and may often be used as such by after-work groups). Bare brick features, unmatched tables and chairs seem to ex-Church seats with the back slot for bibles, probably not now getting much use for their original purpose!), huge picture windows and wooden floor. Pizza is served in the pub and can also be be taken away or delivered via Deliveroo.
Historic Interest
Local Listing:- Dual granite frontage, White Lion Street and Baron Street. Baron Street: Five pilasters, three stallrisers, clear glass window (two mullions, two transom) above top transom. Nine mullion and cut glass.
Victorian building with polished stone on the ground floor exterior. The pub has seen many changes of identity in the recent past. There is a very good copper panel ceiling, date of installation unknown.
In the main bare boarded bar there is a panelled counter that could be old but has been painted grey and appears to be much shorter than the original one (moved?) and has a modern copper top. Dado panelling might be old but painted black in a distressed style. Signs of 3 doors originally, a good wood surround fireplace is blocked-up, and the bar back is totally modern. Good painted advert on the wall of the main bar.
There is a smaller room at the rear with panelling to almost two-thirds height, a Victorian tiled and wood surround fireplace which could be original and is lit by a skylight, but the fixed seating is modern.
