MicroPub.

Micro-pub offering five ales and beers on tap. A recent local CAMRA Pub of the Year, this cracking small pub was once a toy shop in the Woolmarket shopping square.

Operated by local Hop Kettle Brewery, it has been a real boon to the real ale offerings in the town. There are five hand pumps, eight craft taps and two cider taps, all dispensed with great pride by some excellent staff. There is also a range of interesting local and brewery-based gins and other spirits. It is furnished in modern comfortable fashion with a range of seating for small and larger groups.

Comedy and live music are provided during some evenings. The pop-up street food kitchen offers varying menus and styles - see Facebook for details.
