Having closed in 2024 the pub was reopened in late 2025 by Sónia Cardante who used to work there. She is partnering with Simon Kevan who is passionate about "beer, music, food, fashion, and fun".

One cask ale is on offer. At date of this entry the kitchen should be up and running by start of December 2025.

Historic Interest

Built by Charles Frederick Phelps and opened in 1871. The pub retains its original openings which would each have accessed a different social class of bar; it is described as architecturally important by the Council.
