Artisan, Coventry

The entrance of the Artisan Bar & Grill leads to some seating in a corridor where access at the end can be gained to the restaurant to the right (not visited) and the bar to the left. With laminate through a couple of tables lead to the bar area where a counter on the rear faces minimal seating across the front. There were a few locals in who were chatting with a merry woman about motorbikes, with the woman trying to prove she’s more of a petrol head, yawn. Standard and premium keg were available. According to an advert, the conservatory is available for free hire, but I didn’t come across it, albeit I don’t actually look. This is a very basic place that I will walk past next time.

Real ale no longer available. Handpump removed according to WhatPub.

Ground-floor bar and upstairs restaurant in one of Coventry's few surviving 18th-century buildings. The former comprises three small rooms with unexpectedly modern furniture and decor plus a compact side yard. Slightly surprisingly, there is a handpump and this was dispensing Hooky at £3.20.
