This bar opened to coincide with the redevelopment of Bolton's award-winning indoor market in 2014. It quickly became a magnet for cask beer fans across the town. The three handpumps serve an ever-changing range from some of the finest breweries in the north-west and beyond. One pump is always a dark beer. Its location at the centre of the Market's "Lifestyle Hall" creates a unique atmosphere and makes real ale more accessible to those who rarely visit a pub. There are regulars who enjoy spending the afternoon with a pint or two in the bustling retail atmosphere, while others pop in for a swift refreshment break from shopping. It is also the ideal place to grab some great food to eat with your pint. The market has freshly-made takeaway food stalls from places such as Malaysia and Cameroon alongside the sandwich and pasty outlets. A large seating area is shared with these neighbouring stalls. The opening days and hours are restricted by the market. There are occasional meet the brewer and food matching events.
