Formerly the Red Lion, this large pub on the busy A30 is also very near Blackwater railway station, bus stops, and the local shops.

The main bar houses the impressive array of up to four real ales, with a few steps leading up to the ‘Sports Bar’, with a range of lagers, a wide selection of gins, the dartboard and three pool tables. The L-shaped bar serves both areas, serving London Pride as the regular beer, and guest beers, generally including at least one LocAle, and often a dark beer. There is an interesting "What's Next" pole to show drinkers what follows soon. No food is served here, but customers are allowed to bring their own snacks.

There is a live jam session on Thursday evenings, rock bands on Saturdays, and sometimes live music on Fridays also. Several TV’s are available for sports or other events, on demand. A great community pub.

Historic Interest

This pub (for many years known as the Red Lion) was built in the 18th century as a coaching inn, due to its strategic position on the main road which led to the south coast and the West Country.
