The Sidings, the former railway ticket office, has three distinct lounges, being a bar area, a light and airy lounge (mainly for dining and live music) and a refurbished games and TV room. There is an extensive beer garden and smoking area at the rear. Fourteen handpumps line the bar with four regular Manx ales, including a traditional mild. Traditional beer drinkers' pub with home-cooked food. New toilet block built in 2018. Convenient for many local heritage attractions.

Accessible, though help with the front doors is useful as the entry involves turning right then left.
