Created from a former bistro, this is the first micropub in the Deepings. Expect interesting beers and lively banter. All the ales are presently served from the cellar. The range usually includes one or more dark beers, and an offering from the local brewery, Bowler’s (now also brewing Hopshackle ales). There is a large range of bag-in-box ciders, including a number of fruit ciders. A small range of continental lagers are offered.

Food may be ordered from the adjacent takeaways and consumed in the pub (plates and cutlery provided).

Beer festivals and other events are planned.

Nearest bus stop is about half a mile away.

Voted by the branch as Town Pub of the Year 2024.
