Fountain Inn, Leek

Set in the great pub town of Leek, this now multi-award winning pub re-opened in it's current guise in June 2013 after a substantial refurbishment to a very high standard. On entering the front door you are confronted with a magnificent bank of 10 hand-pulls with 8 serving real ales. The regular house beers are supplemented by an ever changing choice and range of guests, often from less well known and local breweries. Knowledgeable and experienced landlord prides himself on quality of beers served. Comfortable seating throughout the 3 distinctively different areas. A semi-covered and heated smoking area to the rear, catches the best of the sun in the afternoons. An almost complete collection of past Good Beer Guides adorns the book shelf, with other items of local and historical interest. Regular charity events plus live music on Sunday afternoons. Real fires in winter enhance the welcoming atmosphere to this great little local. High standard overnight accommodation is available.
