About
Falkland Arms earns a place because the official site paints a vivid picture of what many people want from a local pub: pints at the bar, a proper garden, televised sport and a friendly British-pub feel. It is not the most central option, but it broadens the geography of the shortlist.
That neighbourhood strength makes it a worthwhile inclusion.
