Deceptively spacious two-roomed L shaped pub and restaurant, on the main A52 road from Stoke to Ashbourne by the crossroad turning for Alton Towers. Origins date back to the 16th Century pub, although now very much tastefully modernised and catering mainly for diners, real ale in the small bar area is served in good condition too. Food being served up to 8pm every day. There is a roaring fire in the bar, and the guest beer will often come from a smaller, local brewery. Small car park to one side of the pub and small peaceful sun trap beer garden to the rear. The guest beer will often come from smaller local breweries. Now provides self contained accommodation in the converted old stables next door.

Information for this venue is provided by the Staffordshire Moorlands (Sub Branch Potteries) Branch of CAMRA
