A shop conversion of what is known locally as the wonky building, Grade II listed, on the pedestrianised High Street, most recently operating as Food Glorious Food, a deli farm and tea shop. It opened on Friday 18th March 2022 with a large selection of craft beers including from bottles and cans, it also serves real cider, wines, cocktails, soft drinks and bar snacks too. Several tall fridges on the bar floor contain bottled and canned beers and ciders. Décor is a mix of exposed brickwork and wood panelling. Seating is at high stools in the bay window and tables and chairs elsewhere. There is a small bar counter towards the rear with several beer wall taps on the wall behind it. Draught beer is served through, currently, 2 wall taps but the venue wants to extend this to 5. No cask ale is sold.
