A tiny bar housed in a market stall, this is certainly the smallest pub in the branch area. Outside seating is available as well as seating within the market hall. This is a pub where conversation and banter is an important part of the experience. An adjacent unit now forms a lounge area separate from the main bar.

There are three ever changing cask beers served, sourced from smaller breweries and usually including a mix of styles including a dark beer. No food served, but you are welcome to bring your own.
