Popular compact one-bar pub, hidden away near the old city wall. The three guest beers are often from microbreweries from the South-West or sometimes further afield, and can be of any style. There is a real cider is available. Bare floorboards throughout, with a slightly raised area to the rear. There are bespoke raised tables by the front windows, and long green settles along the walls. Covered seating in the courtyard outside. TNT Sport, and Tuesday quizzes. Sunday lunch is booked up years in advance.
