Refurbished at the start of 2019 this Hydes' Brewery pub retains a traditional feel throughout. Rooms to the front facing Green Lane have a pub feel with a combination of fixed and loose seating. In front of the bar is a central fireplace dividing the area into lounge and vault. To the right of the main door is a small snug. To the rear of a pub is a large conservatory area set out as a dedicated restaurant/dining area. There is also a separate function room which was fully partitioned during the recent refurbishment. Up a short flight of stairs is the Ashton Room.

The pub is popular with diners, particularly the Sunday carvery which is served 12 - 8pm. Children are welcome but only when dining with an adult.

The menu is extensive enough to cater for all guilty pleasures from value meals to signature specials to pub favourites with an equally enticing desert menu.

The rear patio area with heaters for smokers and al fresco dining in warmer weather was much extended at the refurbishment but there is still a large dedicated car park. Disabled access is also at the rear.

For sporting events there are various TV screens around the pub.

On Mondays to Thursdays, between noon and 7 p.m., cask ales are discounted by 50p a pint.
