A very popular town-centre micropub with a single room that accommodates up to two dozen people, with the same number seated outside. There are six handpumps serving beers of all styles, always a porter or stout and regular session beer, changing regularly every few days and sourced from small West Country brewers as well as further afield.

The pub offers tasting flights of three beers and food can be brought in from outside and consumed on the premises. There are lots of interesting bottled and canned beers in their 'fridge of dreams'. Payment by card only.
