Converted from a pub to a popular bar. The cask beers are listed on a chalkboard and dispensed from handpumps at the rear of the bar. Beers stocked can vary but are quite often from Ossett, Rat or Abbeydale. Only one Cask beer may be available during the week. The atmosphere at weekends is often lively with live music fans well catered for.

There may be a 25% discount on the cask beer on Sundays.
