After major refurbishment the pub re-opened as the Polka Hop in Autumn 2018. The Polka Hop is a dance performed by Morris Dancers, the new owner is a member of the local dancers. The bar has been relocated to a former recess creating a comfortable seating area with secluded corners and a real fire complements the warm welcome. Numerous board games are provided. Access from street problematic for wheelchairs. A recent change in operators sees new leaseholders.
Historic Interest
In 1874 this pub was the Bull Fair House then Bull & Fairhouse, becoming Friar Tuck's in the 1980s. It then became O'Donoghues, Irish themed with a focus on the music. This was followed by a reversion to the Bull & Fairhouse, tied to Great Heck Brewery. In early Summer 2018 it reopened as the Polka Hop with connections to morris dancing.
This Pub serves 2 changing beers and 1 regular beer.
