No cask. Keg offering of Cruz, Moretti, berries & cherries Old Mount cider, Menabrea, Hofmeister, Henry Weston's vintage cider, Cruz and Brixton Reliance Pale Ale.
Typical but smaller member of the chain. Glass fronted ex shop premises with bar counter on the right-hand wall mid venue. Regular tables and chairs and some comfy fabric sofas down the left-hand wall opposite the bar counter serving regular tables with regular chairs the other side thereof. Usual array for a Loungers venue of ceiling lights, this time more dominated by glass globe shades rather than shades of the tasselled variety. Plenty of eclectic art on the walls also. There was a sign pointing to a terrace at the back, but I didn't take the bait to explore. Actually, a nice example of the chain, low key and pleasant, but still lowly scored on here for beer choices. As I discovered whilst finding the gents, there is a large seating area on the first floor with plenty of regular tables and chairs and providing in some cases a vantage point over the high street (not that there was much going on).

Typical example of the Lounges chain, as ever saved from mediocrity by the Bath Dark Side keg and a couple of crafty things. The usual esoteric décor appealing to the females of the species, as evidenced by the coffee-drinking clientele, with more space upstairs and some sort of terrace signed at the rear.
