Local tip
This is where the ex-pats come to watch major sports events from back home, so if you're worried you're going to miss the Premier League final come on over. Less popular sport are also catered for, so if you're not sure, ask and the staff will be pleased to find the right station.
Dickens, together with Oliver Twist and Pickwick, are that rare thing, an authentic British pub abroad. From the brass fittings, to the free house offering a wide choice of British beers, an extensive selection of whiskeys (and whiskies), beaten-up leather sofas, glistening brass and wood panels, and large screen tv's showing sporting action from across Europe, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more realistic atmosphere east of Harwich. The pub garden is a wonderful place to sit out in the summer months, and the restaurant offers a selection of British style pub grub in big portions as well as more sophisticated dining options. Tally-ho!
