Lovely old traditional pub, large room at rear but 3 small cosy rooms if you want it quiet 👍 Hand pulled beer taps available 🍻 Didn't order food, not sure if available - so not rated.
A traditional, friendly pub with much of its original interior still intact. Serves a good range of ales, beers and cider. Has regular live music and entertanment throughout the week. Well worth a visit
Brilliant pub. Lots of fab beers. Great little snugs to hide in. Just how a pub should be. Doesn't do food but you are welcome to bring a pizza in the pub from the pizza place next door
Fantastic old pub featured in Camra’s heritage pubs book. Beer selection on the smaller side but a great space.
Lovely old pub with a lively character
