A mile from the town centre, this smart new-build two-roomed bar opened in October 2023. Up to nine cask ales and a plethora of keg beers and ciders can be viewed on Real Ale Finder, with the majority sourced from Derbyshire and local breweries within 30 miles. Regular live music with occasional vinyl music nights.

Historic Interest

The Honeypot Bar was in a separate building at the end of the garden of the former Beehive Inn.
