This classic Victorian pub is in the heart of Ocklynge about a mile from the town centre and close to the Old Town. Two bars, one a classic public with pool table, darts and jukebox, the other a comfortable quieter lounge. Outside are an undercover heated smoking area at the rear and a front garden with seating. It is situated on local bus routes, but has limited car parking. The pub has been under new management from November 2024. In addition to the regular beers, one or two seasonal beers are offered.
