Still a well supported local's pub. The main features for me was the 1930s brick built fireplace and the herringbone design board flooring in the front lounge along with dartboard and pool table in the back room. Five handpumps with three beers on, serving Oakham JHB, Brewster's Decadance and Bombardier. A first for me was that the prices per pint were displayed on the pump clips. The beer was in good shape and served from the presumed landlord, who didn't particularly like to engage in much conversation or interact with the customers.

Splendid and well-used locals' pub at edge of town centre, notable for its extensive beer range, including samples from its own Bakers Dozen brewery. One of the few remaining pubs where Push Penny is played - a local variant of Shove Ha'penny.

This is an open plan single room pub that suffers from having too many TV screens that seem to be everywhere. There is also a dart board and a pool table that was covered.
The bar has six hand pumps and another one with a cider.
Beers available were Oakham JHB & Mompesson's Gold, Brewster's Marquis, Three Blind Mice Lonely Snake, Tres Bien Admiral's Special and one that I couldn't see. I went for the Mompesson's Gold (£3.35) which was in good nick.
It's a shame about the TV screens as otherwise this seems to be a decent pub.
