Owner Donna returned this former St Austell pub back into a pub serving great food back in 2014. The pub interior is cosy and the décor is regularly updated. A good collection of traditional board games and puzzles is available. The house beer is supplemented with two ales sourced from Devon and Cornwall. The house beer is brewed by Summerskills, and is named after the owners' dog. Frequent guest ales include Dartmoor Jail Ale, Legend and Dragon’s Breath, Salcombe Gold and Shingle Bay, South Hams Eddystone and St Austell Hicks. Traditional pub grub at affordable prices is supplemented by specials, with only the famous roast served on Sundays. It is situated close to the Royal Citadel and the world-famous Barbican. First timers should turn right on exiting the pub, and head down the steps towards the Barbican to save time.
