This was the erstwhile Queen of Hearts. Around one side of the room is a mezzanine drinking space, opposite that is the long bar, whilst to the rear through some arches lies a pool and darts playing area. Features of note are the large lightbulbs spelling out '256' along with a wall highlighting the influence Oasis has had on popular music. To complement the inside, a most lavish exterior drinking area has been fashioned in the grounds. Quality furniture alongside fixed wooden seating will surely be a draw in the sunnier months. Hydes' have spent a considerable sum on the refurbishment here, so let us hope it pays off for them. Beers on tap are served in heavy plastic tumblers.
Historic Interest
Acquired by Hydes in April 2011, and opened in September of that same year. A London Underground reference in the lobby, lead you into a very large former church hall. Was sold off by Hydes in 2015 to become an independent venue. The link between the two premises was severed at that time.
