NOTE - Two of the handpumps on the bar which are for Wainwright Gold and Hobgoblin Original IPA are Fake handpumps serving Brewery Conditioned keg beer NOT Cask Conditioned Beers that everyone associates with handpumps. Carlsberg choose to market them as Fresh Ales! A large and lively town centre pub in the centre of historic Churchgate by the Parish Church. It was refurbished in the early part of 2019 and a staircase added to a mezzanine VIP room. Named after the 18th century painter and satirist William Hogarth and themed, without any association with the man himself, as a Victorian gin palace. The historic theme of the pub is somewhat dominated by the vast number of TVs which are difficult to escape from, now joined by a Karaoke booth.

Misleading Dispense

This venue has been flagged by CAMRA volunteers as using a misleading dispense method to serve beer.

This is a 'Fresh Ale' - a keg beer served through a cask handpump. Find out more here Handpump Hijack.

If in doubt, we recommend that you Ask if it's Cask before making a purchase.
