A spacious and busy alehouse drawing a varied adult-only clientele, ranging from business people to football fans. The interior features an imposing horseshoe bar, bare floorboards, a splendid cornice and a collection of brewery mirrors. Old barrels act as tables for those who wish to stand up, or cannot find a seat. Multiple TVs show sport but the volume is usually kept low. The changing real ales, often from UK-wide independent breweries, come in a range of strengths and styles. Sparklers removed on request. Level access via one manual door which opens outwards. Accessible toilet. Light lunches are served Monday to Saturday from 12 to 2pm.
