The Rose and Thistle is a large local traditional pub that caters for all, serving favourite pub classics. Live sporting events (mostly football) are shown regularly on the many televisions around the bar area but should you wish to avoid them there is ample seating outside at the front and in a large beer garden to the rear. Offers on real ale are 50% off on Monday and from 6pm on Sunday.

(The Rose & Thistle is a Greene King Pub Partners franchise concept, Hive Pubs, a branded community pub model. Greene King Pub Partners sets up the pub and takes liability for the property and pays all running costs including stock and supplies, marketing, training and ongoing support).
