This freehouse has a large range of cask ales from both local and national breweries. The central bar features real cider and 'craft' beer, as well as numerous hand pumps. The décor is bare brick walls, wooden floors, with plenty of seating featuring heavy iron chairs with traditional upholstery. A large heated patio and spacious garden are outside. Inside, you will find a large well (thankfully covered with glass!), where you can see down into the cellars below. Live music is a regular feature. Nottingham, Blue Monkey and Black Iris (brewery next door) beers regularly feature.
