Large Victorian corner pub retaining separate drinking areas despite the complete refurbishment that sadly saw a popular public bar knocked through. Clean, tasteful, relaxed and generally quiet, the pub is largely food led and has mainly raised seating. Restaurant meals are served all day until 10.30. Board games but no darts, fortnightly Sunday quiz

As in many Young's pubs now, there is often just one Young's beer, with guests a rarity.
