No murengers, in this pub - "They were about in medieval times and collected taxes called “murages” for the city walls, apparently. They’re all dead now.

Regulars tend to line the bar by early evening but locals and students start arriving in the evening. Lots of music scene types despite there being no jukebox." Text Source: (visit link)
