An eclectic mix of 1960’s and 1970’s memorabilia. A dark, atmospheric interior with exposed original brickwork and wooden beams. A pet tarantula lives in a terrarium above the fireplace. The floor is mainly flagstones. There is a separate pool room upstairs and the pub benefits from a large sheltered back garden. It is a lively pub, often frequented by young people in the evening and at weekends and can become crowded and noisy. Look out for the very low door handle to the gents at the end of the bar.
