Converted from a house in 2013, this railway themed, thriving community free house serves a wide selection of ales. Friendly conversation dominates in this welcoming pub creating a comfortable atmosphere. The large garden with an outside bar and the new garden barn makes this a great summer venue, with the local CAMRA branch awarding it Summer Pub of the Year for three consecutive years. Occasional folk nights and beer festivals are held. Sunday lunches are now served. Two still ciders are available.

Information for this venue is provided by the Rugby Branch of CAMRA
