Nice garden for smokers and drinkers alike. Good beer guide and casque mark accredited. Gets very busy at weekends but the customers are really friendly.

Football fans often meet here after the match as it shows Sky Sports and Sky Sports News. It's an independent pub so prices are a little higher than the chains, but it serves a decent range of drinks including draught lagers, bitters, ciders and ale. It doesn't serve food apart from crisps and a few sandwiches. The pub is fairly small and has a lovely log fire in the winter. They often have live music and quiz nights. The staff are friendly and polite.
