A former coaching inn and local inland revenue office once known as the Unicorn, now a very friendly free house. Parts of the original building are still visible. Various rooms are served by a small central bar. Interesting selection of beers, both local & national, often including those from the nearby Izaak Walton Brewery. Restored and refurbished in 2017. CAMRA Heart of Staffordshire Pub of the Season for Winter 2019. Excellent, well run pub, warm & cosy in winter. Bed & breakfast accommodation available.

Historic Interest

The oldest parts of the building date back to the mid 16th century and it has been an inn since the early 17th century, a stopping point for coaches on the London Chester route.
