Opened in 2016, the Tap and Vent was the first micropub in Longridge. Situated in a row of shops on Towneley Parade the pub provides a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Four or five cask ales are served handpump, typically sourced from microbreweries. Craft, bottled and keg beers plus keg cider, fine wines and Prosecco are also available. There is also a large range of gins. A genuine free house encouraging the art of conversation.
