Unusual for a main street pub, it has 2 armchairs outside on the pavement, this is a famous, long, narrow pub, reaching back to a pool table.
It attracts local traders, especially for food, along with mature regulars by day and all sorts at evenings and the weekend.
They retain a friendly and welcoming atmosphere as a rare privately owned pub.
Discos are hel on Fridays and Saturdays.
Wheelchair customers are welcome, but there is no access to toilets (down stairs).
