This is a food orientated pub with a 16th century attached barn serving as a restaurant. It is possible to sit in the bar and drink beers. The pub is now run by a company that runs other pubs in Suffolk and Cambridge. It has recently been refurbished and this description requires updating as the beers may be dfferent too. The car park can get very full as it is smaller than needed to cover the number of table spaces available, Swan Meadow is the nearest public car park. The location is at the northern end of Saffron Walden on the road to the Chesterfords.

Information for this venue is provided by the North West Essex Branch of CAMRA
