Micropub opened in July 2019 in an abandoned shop unit on the main shopping street in the centre of Hoylake. The narrow main room and bar is attractively decorated with simple furniture. The pub expanded into the next door shop in 2020 to create a new lounge area while the small room at the rear is now a well stocked bottle shop. At the rear is a pleasant beer garden. The owners ensure a balanced selection of cask beers at all times. Wirral CAMRA Pub of the Year in 2025 and runner up in 2023 and 2024 and 2026.
