Hidden in an unobtrusive row of shops by the canal bridge, this is a splendid drinkers' bar which seems to make the most of available space, and with numerous 'reserved' signs out for later probably needs it. The bar counter is in the left side, with tables through the right hand shop, an overflow room downstairs and extensive and partly covered outdoor seating to the rear. Also to the rear is the "shed" containing the brewery. Beers mostly their own with a few guests, four or five on cask and a wider selection of keg including cider, plus the mandatory bottle fridge. Very happy to return here.

Larger than it looks micro, it’s the brewery tap for Harrison’s brewery but also stocking guests. The fairly normal front area leads back to a sitting area with banquette seating, toilets are downstairs and there’s a garden area off of there. Decor is largely from old tools from various trades and there’s a lump of mysterious iron bolted to one wall, I later discovered (in GPO who also have one) that it was the frame from a grand piano.
NB This is not the Brew Shed in the reviews prior to 2018, that Brew Shed was in the adjacent building now "Georgie Design"

Double fronted micro with a garden access downstairs.
Good Beer Guide 2021 entry.
Busiest place found on a Saturday afternoon in Retford.
