A Victorian local pub used by customers of all ages, with an excellent range of beers from local and national brewers.

Inside there are three bar areas: a traditional bar with a real fire; a comfortable lounge with leather sofas; and a small entrance hall snug area. The pub also boasts a function room upstairs, plays host to football, golf, darts, cricket and rugby clubs, and has regular quiz nights.

Large beer garden at the rear with a barbecue shed, profits from which raise money for local charities, during the spring and summer months. A popular beer festival with around twenty-five beers is held in June or July.

Sunday roasts are available from April 2026.

The first recorded licensee was a Mrs Dix in 1898. The pub had been operated as a shop by Mrs Dix since about 1888.

Built in 1896 the Beehive was refitted in the 1950s. The main entrance leads into a red quarry tiled floor small snug with a 1950s counter which looks like the former off-sales. A doorway to the left leads to the bare wood floored public bar which looks like it was two rooms prior to the 1950s. The front part has distinct half panelling with benches attached and a 1950s brick fireplace, the counter has a 1950s front with a modern tiled top and more 1950s fixed seating in the rear section. A doorway to the right leads to the lounge with what looks like another 1950s counter but less distinctive so might be modern and it also has a tiled top.
