This one? "Union Jack, 32 Rue du Docteur Leroy"
Not sure if it is still operational.

I believe it is still there - my friend in Le Mans has arranged for us to go and watch the football on Monday PM.

I found a company the other day which will deliver polypins to France. Or somebody could bring one..... Any takers for a share in the costs for maybe Friday night (whatever we're doing!?)

We are taking our selection of home brewed real ales with us. We can't rely on any of that chemical filled foreign muck now can we?

Hi guys! I can confirm that we are still open and we have the only real ales on tap (proper pumps) in Le Mans. We have two on offer: HANSY 69: our award winning bitter, named after my old man who loved his ales and; McGILVRAY's OLD BAYLEY our new golden ale with great flavours. Both ales are brewed by an English guy, just north of Alençon, who imports all the cereals and hops from England and has won various gold medals from competitions in Europe. If you love your ales, you'll love these. The pub is found on rue du docteur leroy (cant miss us with the British flag outside) which is just off the Place de la Republique (bottom left hand corner as you look at McDonalds) where they are doing the scrutineering this year. Hope to see you there!
Phil

Oh my, we are so going to have to come along and try this! Can I also reserve a table for Friday 13th June 2014? It's my 50th birthday and should be pre-race Friday too. Hurrah!
