Closed for over two years, the pub re-opened in March 2023 after renovation by Elite Bistros (Gary Usher) following funding from a loan and a share issue from the community.
The interior layout remains unchanged from previous incarnations, but has received a complete makeover in an attractive, understated yet welcoming style. The conservatory and the rear open areas behind the bar are given over to dining, as is the small snug area to the left of the bar as seen from the front entry. Outside on an elegant raised patio area, where there had previously been a small garden, there are more tables for dining and drinking as required.
Despite the emphasis on dining, the owner intends to keep the pub feel and is anxious to present top quality cask beer from a variety of sources.
A local community group had originally made a highly credible bid to buy the pub from the owning pubco when Elite Bistors showed interest. They are not disappointed by the outcome.
