The pub has confirmed that they no longer have regular beers and intend to rotate up to 4 cask ales and at least 1 real cider on handpump, this can include London brewed beers such as Five Points and Redemption.

As a craft beer house it also has plenty craft keg (up to 14 taps) some of which comes from the Saint Monday brewery which is owned by operators Grace Land. As with an increasing number of pubs, the use of pumpclips has been dropped and the beers and ciders on sale are listed on a large board.

It did have its own on-site brewery but this ceased operations some time ago.

There is a very impressive list of bottle beers including some fine beers from Belgium. A wide food selection has been introduced, see website for full details.

Historic Interest

Local Listing:- Three tiled stallrisers, seven tiled pilasters. Left hand side, clear glass window, one mullion, one high transom and two mullions above and extractor. Timber panelled smoked glass double door, clear glass fanlight.
