A decent micropub with three quality beers to choose from on our Thursday evening visit. The three handpumps on were Black Jack Jack in the Box Blonde, Bexley Brewery Spike Island and Copper Beach Birdie. I went for the Black Jack Blonde, a very decent 4% session ale at £4.20 a pint. There was also a blackboard near the bar area displaying a list of 40 tinned beers from the fridges, 20% off on 'Tinnie Thursday'.

Modern light and airy one room micropub that opened in March 2019, just in time for Covid, located in the Shirley Parkgate shopping centre. However they seem to have survived well and had a few in on this Saturday evening.
The small bar has four hand pumps for cask and five keg taps for craft which I was told regularly rotate. Then fridges with a good collection of bottles and cans.
There’s a lot of glass frontage here and I prefer micropubs without the distraction of TV screens. However it’s the locals that count and if it attracts them all well and good. But for sure this is a very good addition for ale choice in Shirley and I wish it well.

As stated below, an odd spot for a micropub but it works. A good choice of beers on when I called and the 2 we tried were excellent. Well worth a visit.
