This Pub is Closed Long Term
This 18th century coaching inn is located on the Plymouth side of the River Tamar, beneath the railway bridge that gives the pub its’ name (1860). It is a small, but friendly, two bar local. Well behaved dogs are welcome. Real ale is not available here. Curry night is Thursdays, with Sunday roast special offers also available on Sunday lunchtime.
March 2024 Update: The pub has been closed since February 2021 and its future remains uncertain. No planning applications have been found up to and including 20/03/2024.
The public bar on the right has a distinctive lapped wood bar counter of two distinct shades of wood, possibly from the 1950s and a 1950s brick fireplace painted red. Two doors into the room indicates one (possibly the left) was for the off sales? Dado panelling might be 1950s but the bar back fitting is modern. On the left the lounge bar has another 1950s lapped wood bar counter but it was covered over in the late 1990s with new upholstered panels and new top added. Some old wood behind the bar including remnants of a dumb waiter. The room was double in size in 199X when the cottage on the left was added to the building - there is a large old stone fireplace in this area and good barrel seats and low tables. A photo on the wall shows the original bar back in Octagon Brewery days. Note the old opening mechanism for the windows in the lounge. Marginal.
