A smart, family-friendly former hotel with separate function room, busy every night of the week with a young, diverse crowd. TV screens showing live sport don't dominate, but means the pub is especially bustling when there's a big match on. Food is served daily until late with discounts and promotions on certain days such as grill night on a Thursday, bottomless brunch on a Saturday and Sunday roasts. There is a comedy night every Wednesday, painting classes on the last Tuesday of the month and speed dating on the last Thursday of every month
