A large three-roomed Nicholson's pub in the City Centre. A seated courtyard area at the front of the pub leads to the Georgian Dining room on the left, Tudor bar straight ahead and Stagecoach bar to the right - which in turns leads to outdoor smoking area at the rear. Eight handpumps serve a variety of styles and strengths of beer from around the country (regularly includes beers from local breweries). Good quality pub food served daily from 10 til 10.
