Craft Beer Bar.

A friendly and welcoming 'craft beer' micropub opened September 2019. With a stripped back industrial-urban décor, featuring skateboards and board sport ornamentation, this popular independent micro has a selection of ever-changing regional and national real ale on 4 handpumps, alongside 10 keg taps and 4 draught ciders.

A strong music influence through the pub is supported with themed music nights and a set of turntables where customers are invited to bring their own vinyl. The pub also holds regular tap takeovers, such as an annual Tiny Rebel birthday takeover during mid February each year, and Fierce brewing.

The micropub is both child and dog friendly (offering water and dog treats), it has a range of board games, a Sega games console, baby change and the ability to bring your own food or have food delivered to the premises.

Historic Interest

Building use to be a butchers - traditional butchers tiled floor and tiled walls which are fitted so well they could not be removed, just covered over. Building also served as a post office and prior to being a pub, a charity shop.
