Bought by Merry Monk Pub Co in 2002 from longstanding local licensee Mr Ronald Priestley and wife Doreen (1984-2002) who bought it from Whitbread Brewery. The pub is now owned by Old Mill Brewery and is a warm bright, welcoming pub with plenty of outside space in the rear paved beer garden and veranda which overlooks Oakwell Stadium. Both home and away fans meet up here where the corner bar serves a public bar with pool table to the left and TV area to the right. The smaller back room leads to the smokers balcony and beer garden. Sunday (Carvery) lunches are served but booking is essential. The pub is currently up for sale as Old Mill feel it no longer fits with their estate.
