Preston's first micropub, which opened in Feb 2016 just a few doors away from Preston's Guild Hall complex. The main room has a range of seating and the high ceilings give a light and airy feel. A small lounge is tucked away to the rear and there is a comfortable lounge upstairs. Seven changing beers, mainly local or from Yorkshire are served including one dark beer together with a range of continental beers in keg and bottle, spirits and mixers. No jukebox, TV, or food, but live acoustic on Sunday afternoons. Worth noting they may close earlier than stated times dependent on footfall.
