I liked it as soon as I walked in, and it only got better from there. Enter the bar with quiet sport TV or the comfortable wood panelled lounge with roaring fire. All very quaint and the welcome from the landlady and other customers was very friendly for a non-local. Could have stayed here all day and gone through the 6 ales, not much more to say, it’s my kind of pub.

I only found out from the landlord on our visit, that this is a Camra listed pub of Historic Interiors, so what a good bonus. We initially popped into the main lounge on the left on our visit and walked into the fabulous oak panelled room, along with a glowing fire. The well respected landlord took our orders and as it was early evening continued with his table service.
Five handpumps serving three regular beers Butty Bach, Ossett White Rat and Salopian Shropshire Gold. The two guest beers were Fixed Wheel Chain Reaction and Salopian Hop Twister. The cobs on the bar were excellent, plus the bar side is also worth a look in.

Two bar pub, the lounge has an historically important interior while the bar is rather more plain but comfortable and is equipped with dart board and jukebox, with loads of trophies above the door. Plenty of friendly local trade. Not a lot to add to Aqualung’s description and I didn’t see the entrance to the lounge either. Friday night looks like ladies darts night. Six pulls offering a couple from Salopian, plus Wye Valley, Fixed Wheel and two Yorkshire beers from Kelham Island and Goose Eye.
