  • Outstanding pub conversion

An end of terrace Victorian building converted from a shop to a pub over three floors. Said to have a 'brown café' feel about it, like similar bars in Holland. All age ranges are drawn to it due to its 'difference' to other pubs and bars and its wide choice of real ales and ciders. The main bar is on the ground floor, and has up to seven beers on handpump, with many being brewed locally. There is a curved staircase to the cellar drinking area and a staircase to a larger drinking area on the first floor, with views overlooking the street. Real fires are provided in winter. The cellar has low intensity lighting and traditional seating and tables. Live folk music is provided on Thursday. A previous Northamptonshire Food and Drink Award Community Pub of the Year winner, and Local CAMRA Cider Pub of the Year. Became a community-run pub in April 2025.
