58-59 Devizes Road, Old Town, Swindon, SN1 4BD (View on Google Map)

This ex-hairdresser's has a low ceiling and is quite dark giving it a cosy feel, although it can become a bit of a squash when it is busy. The name comes from the Victorian Tuppenny gin which was a more refined premium product than the infamous “Mother’s ruin” gin.

There are four handpumps on the bar serving real ales from a range of breweries, but regularly featuring Bristol Beer Factory. There are also 14 keg taps with 2 dedicated to Belgian and German beer respectively. A popular regular live music venue.

No kitchen, but food can be ordered and delivered from Yak the Himalayan Kitchen opposite.

Historic Interest

Opened in November 2016 in premises formally used as a hairdressers.

Information for this venue is provided by the Swindon & North Wiltshire Branch of CAMRA
