Reopened in November 2019, with refurbished new toilets and additional room created, under award winning licensee Mark Turner (winner of Regional Pub of the Year 2019 with the Fountain in Leek), this pub has gone from strength to strength.

This is a very friendly and pleasant free house on the edge of the town centre, less than a 5 minute walk from the bus station, offering 6 real ales (4 permanent and 2 guests) alongside 4 or more real ciders and a selection of craft beers in cans and bottles.

No food is served but customers are welcome to bring their own and eat it with a purchased drink or two.

It has a large elongated open plan with a feel of 3 separate areas; the main bar area plus two slightly raised to each end. The one on the left also accomodates the toilets, the one on the right a small room, ideal for groups.

Music on Sunday evenings, and quiz on Wednesdays.

Awards:

CAMRA Potteries Pub of the Month August 2022.
