This is a friendly traditional local pub with separate public and saloon bars, both with log fires. There is occasional live music. Beer festivals are held three times a year, often consulting the local CAMRA branch regarding beer choice. A large enclosed rear garden has children’s play equipment, regular summer BBQs and is the site for occasional music concerts in summer. Bus services are available nearby in both Church Street and Willingdon Road.

Following other branch awards, the pub reached ten consecutive years in the Good Beer Guide in 2024, the first presentation picture above shows proprietors Andy and Jo having received the Good Beer Guide award, which was made at their fortieth pub beer festival in 2024. In 2025 the pub was awarded the CAMRA branch Community Pub of the Year which was presented at the August pub beer festival that year. On Sundays all ale prices are reduced between 12 noon and 3 pm.
