The Pineapple had that name until 1974. was then renamed The Colonies with an American colonial theme, but half a century later as attitudes changed, reverted to The Pineapple. It's a comfortable, split level pub with an extensive back courtyard garden leading to Castle Lane. Some interesting prints are displayed on the panelled walls.
A large food menu includes sandwiches.
This pub can become busy during early weekday evenings with a clientèle of largely local civil servants and other office workers.
Historic Interest
Pineapples were first brought to Europe by no less than Christopher Columbus, and for centuries were looked on as a symbol of affluence and luxury. Impossible to grow in England before hothouses came along, they were so expensive that they were simply used as table ornaments to impress guests rather than being eaten; and were often rented for the occasion. Industrialisation and steamships finally enabled a fall in price and greater consumption. In Georgian times the pineapple was frequently used as an architectural motif.
This Pub serves 2 changing beers and 2 regular beers.
