Could be classed as a posh micro no doubt. GBG listed there are 6 pulls on the counter with 10 kegs taps of varying interest on a big pipey horseshoe, although to be fair as a plague measure there were only four kegs and two casks in operation. A square-ish room with tall arched windows, bare board floor, dark modern woodwork and a well executed tiled wall backing the servery. Eclectic furnishings ranging from leather armchairs to industrial with nowt in between. Usual form over function lighting that goes for big money in places like Drew Pritchard’s or some “I saw you coming” emporia. On the ball staff handling the plague measures efficiently, sadly beer quality wasn’t good but in the time of plague who knows?

Opened 3 months ago in the premises which were the Moo Bar.
There were 5 handpulled beers on when I went in today. Also quite a few craft beers.
Had half of Fallen Chew Chew (a milk stout) which was pretty superb.
There were only two people in the place. I hope this reincarnation of the pub is a success,
