Under new management from early 2019, only minor changes have taken place to this town centre pub, a 'locals' local. Close to the harbour and beach, this former coaching inn is full of life and local characters. There are two distinctive bars, the rear 'games'/live music bar drawing mainly the younger drinker; the more mature who prefer a drink and a chat tend to gather in the front, where the big screen TV is rarely on. There is an ample courtyard garden at the rear, suitable for families. The number of ales may increase in the summer months; real ciders may be available.
