As it is occupying former shop premises, it retains a somewhat shop-front facade that is both modern and functional. Internally, a deep space is made more intimate by it being broken up by the use of wooden screens, some booths, and a few panelled areas. The bar occupies the right-hand front wall, it accommodates many handpumps - alongside the usual Wetherspoon line-up are some interesting guest ales which add depth to the range. Apart from that, the other fare is of the standard house offering. A smoking area exists at the rear, while for those requiring the toilets, they are upstairs in this particular design. The place is often bustling, as this is the Grove's cheapest outlet by some way.
