This ex-hairdresser's has a low ceiling and is quite dark giving it a cosy feel, although it can become a bit of a squash when it is busy. The name comes from the Victorian Tuppenny gin which was a more refined premium product than the infamous “Mother’s ruin” gin.

The emphasis is on craft drinks with a range of keg craft from the likes of Renegade, Electric Bear and others. There are four handpumps on the bar serving real ales from a range of breweries, but regularly featuring Burning Sky. A regular live music venue.

Open from 10am Tuesday to Friday, but alcohol is only served from 12 noon.

Historic Interest

Opened in November 2016 in premises formally used as a hairdressers.

Information for this venue is provided by the Swindon & North Wiltshire Branch of CAMRA
