Welcoming town pub with an attractive open-plan bar, a wood-burning stove and tables for diners. Good-quality traditional pub meals are home-cooked and served daily and there are also home made scotch eggs served from the bar. Of the two changing beers one is from Fullers range and the other usually from a brewery from another region. Both the ales and the premises appear to be spotlessly maintained by long term joint landladies Cathy and Emma. There is a heated patio garden to the rear, which is the venue for a beer festival in July including several local ales as well as others from around the country. The pub attracts locals, holidaymakers and shoppers from the nearby market with its warm welcome and traditional pub games such as darts, cribbage and pool. Music is turned up on Friday and Saturday late evenings and there is Karaoke on the first Saturday of each month. Live bands perform once a month, also on a Saturday.
