The pub underwent major changes in 2026 including addition of an accessible toilet and a new upstairs dining area and a refurbished bar keeping the traditional feel.

Former 18th century coaching inn with a single long, split-level bar and stone fireplaces. Taller customers should beware of the low beam above the step half-way along the bar! Theakston Best Bitter is normally on, leaving the other hand pumps for guest beers from the Stonegate and SIBA-Beerflex lists. Guest beers include some from local breweries such as Timothy Taylor and Wensleydale, or from national names such as Fullers. The popular food menu is 'free of tie' and cooked on the premises. The beer garden has been largely weatherproofed through the addition of translucent awnings. Quiz night is at 8pm on Wednesdays.
