One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
The original small bar is little changed with a quarry-tiled floor, old bar-back with advertising mirror, and diagonally-boarded counter. Minor changes in the 1960s with some ply-panelled walls added and the fireplace replaced. Despite converting the former shop to a new lounge bar and adding inside toilets the family have continued to sell no draught beer at all, just bottled ones - one of only two pubs left in Northern Ireland to do so (the other being Carmichael's in Ballyeaston, Co. Antrim, an unaltered basic pub). Owner Terry Shiels says the only draught you get here is when it's time to open the doors at closing time!
