The first micropub in the High Peak, its two rooms converted from a former wine shop off Buxton Market Place. Beer is the thing here with four changing beers from microbreweries up and down the country, usually including one dark beer, as well as two bag-in-box ciders. The objective is to bring to Buxton beers and ciders which are rarely, if ever, seen in the town. The enthusiastic staff ensure a warm and friendly welcome. An eclectic choice of background music on vinyl is played. A log-burning stove is a welcoming winter feature.

Information for this venue is provided by the High Peak, Tameside & North East Cheshire Branch of CAMRA
