Former Wetherspoons oulet, purchased and reopened by the Mountain Pub Co. in September 2023. The interior, formerly rather cluttered and claustrophobic, has been classily refurbished and has a more open feel. There are plentiful sports-geared TV screens and three dart boards in alcoves but management are clear this isn't a Sports Bar. Eight handpumps but only up to four will be in use at any one time with a changing mix of local and national beers. Food initially confined to toast and teacakes, with sandwiches to follow.
