Cask was a single hand pump providing par for the course Wye Valley Butty Bach. Keg offering was Heineken AF, John Smiths, Guinness, Heineken, Carling, Amstel, Moretti, Cruz, Inch's Riverside, Neck Oil, original SB and berries & cherries Old Mount cider.

Roadside pub that have passed many times sporadically over the years. Main bar area has the counter to the immediate left on entering the room. Carpeted at the front of the bar area with a small tile skirt around the two sides of the bar counter. Regular tables and chairs and shed loads of Xmas decs here. The rear part to the right-hand side is also carpeted but the rear left-hand corner is bare boarded with a stage area and this is obviously a popular venue for live music. There is a rear function room behind the main bar area with banquettes and regular chairs serving regular tables plus a pool table. The venue was busy with families dining on my visit. Screens were showing motorsport absent commentary and there was a quite subdued non-descript soundtrack playing.
