Reports of "a couple of Potton ales. assured are real cask ales. New manager Mantas to concentrate on smaller brewers and cider producers. Hopes to have some music evenings as well as a monthly quiz."

Mantas is welcoming and delighted to see CAMRA members - already (he opened in July) has some regulars. Food next year. A full survey here soon (PB).
