Pub will be open Tuesdays in December 2023 from noon until 11pm (food service until 8pm), otherwise closed on Tuesdays.

A large pub named after a pig featured in a PG Wodehouse novel. Décor is traditional yet very light and welcoming, and the woody interior is spacious and well laid out. Screens separate various areas with different themes, including walls featuring book covers & photos of PG Wodehouse, local photos and bookshelves. The main menu offers a wide variety of modern pub food, with additional sandwich, bar snack and children menus. Extra seating is provided outside on the front small patio area and on the rear patio/garden.
