A shop conversion ,the interior has bare walls ,a high ceiling while the bar is faced in wood from pallets,while the high tables also use this rough wood.Fairy lights maintain a hip feel to the interior and the serving crew are young and enthusiastic about beer.The collection of pump clip is a veritable who's who of beer brewing and shows that some very interesting beer has been sold here both on keg and cask.
There are two handpumps with just one working on my trip offering Northern Monk Eternal which was carefully served in a pint globe after quite a bit of pulling through and sample tasting by the barman.This resulted in an excellent pint,and I can see why it's in the GBG.
There is a much larger selection of kegs (possibly key kegs but not detailed on the board) ,around 10 on my trip with offerings from the likes of Wiper & True,2 from Blackjack and some more obscure brewers.There is a line of fridges displaying the bottle selection There is a cask discount for CAMRA members,and I would always include this bar on any crawl around Hanley.

As noted below this is a fairly small shop conversion. It has an unfinished look to it that I would guess is deliberate. I had a brief look at the can and bottled options and noticed a few items that are available in Tesco at much cheaper prices.
The small bar counter on the right has two hand pumps which had Ilkley Rombald and Blackjack Gold Coast. I went for the Rombald (£2.70 discounted) which was in good nick and excellent value. I quite liked this place but would probably only pop in again for a single pint given the limited cask choice. It's GBG 2019 listed.

Not too bad a little micro-like pub. Annoyingly it does third, 2 third and pints only. That said, its not too expensive unlike a lot of craft beer places. 2 handpulls for mingebags like me who'd rather have the cheaper(better?) cask ale. Cask beers were Fyne Ale Horizon Line and Twisted Barrel Mild. There are 12 taps for overpriced crafty stuff and I don't really care what they were. The single room is bare bricked and concrete floored.
