Website

Country inn just outside the boundary of the City of Stoke-on-Trent, in an area straight out of a 1980's Jess Franco horror film, trading on restaurant quality food. Basically one single room internally, the pub is nevertheless divided into separate areas for more privacy; note the marvellous matchstick model of the pub that took nine months to build. There is a small smoking area outside next to the car park, which is guarded by a level crossing barrier.

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