In summer, three of the pumps may be used for cider - examples seen include such as Broadoak Perry, Seacider White Peach and Against The Grain Session Cider but the one still cider on sale changed regularly.

A predominately young clientèle, the pub can get crowded most nights but there’s a small outside seating area providing over-spill and a place for smokers together with an upstairs dining/function room which can provide a quieter area if not being otherwise used. The pub is becoming famous for its thin based pizzas but there are many other options. You can find the latest menu on their website.
