Originally a miller's house and later a cafe, it opened as a pub in 1980. With thick sandstone walls, low beams and a real fire it comprises a small L-shaped, stone-floored bar and a lounge used mainly by diners. The pub has an excellent reputation for its locally sourced home-made food with a menu to suit most tastes. The nearby Royden Park and Thurstaston Common provide the pub with many passing hikers to supplement the strong local following. The black & white photos show the pub in 1980 and 1992.

As at December 2025, Wednesday is Cask Ale Day with cask beer at £3.50 per pint.

Historic Interest

Originally the miller's cottage for the mill on this site, it became Lumsden's Café then opened by Higsons as a pub in September 1980.
