Friendly local decorated with 1950-1970 memorabilia and free of TV screens. Good pub food in generous portions is served daily, with roasts on Sundays. There is a comprehensive collection of board games. The attractive verandah is popular with diners, and there is a large suntrap garden, recently concreted over. One of the handpumps serves cider. The number of beers on other pumps varies from two to four. Opening hours vary from month to month, see website. Recently changed hands so look out for changes.
