Microbar set up to instant acclaim at the end of August in 2016 by an experienced husband and wife team, ideally located on the 'Hartshill Mile'. Later, the adjoining Valhalla theme bar was opened as part of the same venture.

Converted from an old cafe, the bar is on the right when you enter the building, whilst the rest of the floor space is occupied by an eclectic mix of seating from sofas to chairs, even including a couple of old car seats in the far left-hand corner. Much bric-a-brac, brewery related and otherwise, adorns the walls making this a very comfortable and welcoming place to sit.

Three well kept real ales are available hailing from anywhere across the UK, usually at least one being from a local brewery. Real ciders are usually available in the custom-built fridge containers, plus a range of craft beers and an impressive gin range.

A real hit with the local community, the Sanctuary is an ideal place to relax and sip a pint or two.
