It has a sprawling ground floor bar with large ornate windows, a high ceiling and an intimate dining room down to the right; upstairs past framed photographs of prime ministers is a sumptuous carvery restaurant. The food offering includes Sunday roasts.
There is a Parliamentary Bell in the pub dining room.
Note that the licence permits sale of alcohol from 10am Monday to Saturday and from noon on Sundays.

                                The Champion Beer of Britain is one of the most prestigious beer competitions in the world. It is the ultimate honour for UK brewers and has helped put many into the national spotlight.
