Formerly a continental cafe-bar specialising in Belgian & Flemish beers, in summer 2025 this became a traditional pub named the Marlborough Head, a reversion to its pre-Lowlander name. Two cask ales are reported on offer, plus keg beers including from Two Tribes, Siren and Gipsy Hill. The food menu includes bar snacks & small plates, sharing platters, and pub-favourite mains. Ale prices reflect the very central theatre/tourist location.
