Owners at this 17th century coaching inn have exposed the attractive stonework to the front of the pub and has just completed a sympathetic yet extensive refurbishment that has pleased both the regulars and new customers alike. This friendly and popular pub supports the local community through its 'buy local' policy and serves beers mainly from Acorn, Northern Monk, Magic Rock and Thornbridge breweries. Food is available in the bar area or upstairs in the 1776 restaurant.
