Ostensibly a micro pub but actually a decent size, with two distinct seating areas either side of an island bar. The premises were formerly a shop. The emphasis now is on fermented malt and fruit, consumed in a tranquil atmosphere (no TV, but some background music). No meals are available, but nuts and nibbles for sale. Lovers of whisky, gin and wine will also find something of interest. Four hand-pulled real ales and eight keg beers are served from the above ground cellar behind the bar. All cask beer remains independent and mainly local, with local and American keg offerings. They have over 200 canned, chilled, local and continental beers from the likes of Cantillon, Chimay, Schneider and Augustiner amongst others. Keg cider from Hogans and bottled ciders from the likes of Dunham Press, High Peak and SiDa. Cans can be taken consumed on or off the premises. There are two weekly quiz nights, a music quiz on Monday and a general knowledge on Tuesdays starting at 8pm. There are occasional DJs and live music. Note that "Last Orders" is 30 minutes before the quoted closing times, and they can close early on quiet nights.
