This is a busy street corner pub serving a mixed clientele and is situated near Plymouth Hoe, where Sir Francis Drake famously played bowls. The pub changed hands in March 2022 and has been refurbished inside and out. Up to four varying live beers and two local real ciders are available here, along with a large selection of gins and rum. Good home-cooked food is available all day, with breakfast served from 1000-1200. The wood panelled raised and lower deck seating areas add to the nautical theme. It is located just a short walk from the historic Barbican and the City Centre and is well worth a visit. CAMRA Member Discount 20p/pint off real ale may be available here.

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