Deceptively larger that it looks from the outside, this former restaurant was converted into a hotel and pub in the late 1980s with a L-shaped bar. It fronts onto the A5 in the centre of Towcester. It has regular pool nights, live entertainment on the Friday and open mic nights monthly.

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