WELCOME TO THE FOUNTAIN, AN INDEPENDENT REAL ALE FREEHOLD PUB LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE HISTORICAL CITY OF ELY.
Old fashioned town pub with friendly characterful staff. Warm fire, plenty of comfortable seating with well kept beer
Really nice pub! Very cosy with the fire! Dogs are allowed and the bartenders are very friendly!
A really nice oldie worlde pub with a great view of a pretty part of Ely.
One of the few real pubs left in Ely, full of charm and character. There is no television, no music, and such is the clientele you don't have to worry about people playing loud videos on their phones. It's one of the few outlets you won't feel like an eccentric to be seen with a newspaper. A pub like this should be cherished.
There are many contributing factors that can help swing a pub one way or another but it's almost always the quality of management that makes the real difference. It's a shame about this pub. It could be great. It doesn't have advantages like a beer garden or a pretty setting, but it is a good size and it's got enough separation between parts of the bar that it can host groups and individuals without all being overpowered. The beer selection is limited. Staff turnover seems constant and inexperienced. Opening times are sporadic. No food. If there was nowhere better within a short walk you could maybe understand, but there are several options and so you can only put the lack of effort down to laziness and the feeling that the management isn't really all that interested. Time to hang up the spurs and let someone else make something much better out of this high potential little pub
