Visited earlier this week, mid week early afternoon. 10 hand pulls for cask ale and all were on. There were three dark ales available, which was pleasing to see. There are some keg taps too, including ABK, Camden Stout and a Cloudwater hazy pale.
It's fairly small but enough seating despite being fairly busy for a Tuesday afternoon. There are high tables near the window and lower tables and chairs further into the place. There is an upstairs area that I didn't investigate, but must have additional seating as a couple of ladies disappeared up there with their drinks.
I received a friendlier exit here than at the Cob & Coal!
Definitely somewhere I'd like to make a return visit to.

Ten handpumps, so enough to make any CAMRA zealot and their ilk cream themselves especially when it serves Draught Bass, the other beers were from small breweries, the kegs are from generally craft or pseudo-craft breweries. Wines and spirits too, so is it a kosher micro? Whatever there’s no surprise it’s in the GBG. Beer quality is very good in spite of the pump count. A small corner micro but with seating upstairs as well as downstairs a few tables with stools and a sprinkling of taller chairs at shelves, there’s a pew in one corner. Odd decor which is largely animal based obviously including foxes, plus a selection of CAMRA awards, cut down keg lamp shades, a bus destination blind, footy scarves and “witty” signs. Toilets and the extra seating upstairs, there’s also a rear garden and there’s no standing at the bar. Slightly cliquey vibe.

This micro was a former corner house, when the owner and his wife spotted the property whilst having a meal in the restaurant opposite. It's a real hit with the locals and beer tourists like ourselves calling in. We called on a Thursday afternoon and the owner apologised for only having 9 handpumps in use, instead of the usual 10. Bass is their permanent cask ale, along with various guests from dark to light.
The line up on our visit was Durham Dark Angel Stout, Black Edge Dark Mild, Theakston Best Bitter, Black Edge Pike Pale Ale, Durham Hooked On A Feeling IPA, Jarl Citra Blonde, Pictish Pacific Jade, Bank Top Flat Cap and Bass. If space is limited there is further seating upstairs.
