Draft offering of Orbit IVO Pale Ale and the Noco Lager. Range of beers by bottle and can also, including a couple from the Kernel.

Small cafe bar with the bar counter opposite the entrance on the rear wall in a bare boarded, glass fronted venue. Pack in quite a few Formica topped tables and regular chairs here with space for a banquette along the left-hand wall. There is a large floor to ceiling glass fronted cabinet along the right-hand wall storing the range of wines available here. There was a nice buzz in here, the chatter of locals sipping their coffees - I was the only one drinking alcohol at the time of my visit. Some pavement tables and chairs out the front on quite a busy road, so I was happy with my choice sitting inside on a sunny early evening.
