Smart looking pub recently freed from the shackles of Enterprise Inns since being bought buy a local businessman who has injected new life into it. A classic two room interior. The cosy lounge has an intimate feel and displays pictures of by-gone railway and other local heritage scenes. The bar displays a gallery of drinks-related mirrors. Doom Bar has become the house ale which is joined by a guest ale, both sold at a competitive price. An outdoor drinking area is at the front. Activities include corks (noon, Sunday), darts (Monday & Friday) with live entertainment on Saturday.
