Former coach-house smartly refurbished in June 2015 by Admiral & managed by enthusiastic real ale nut Clare Armstrong, formally of the Jolly Sailor, Stockport. Cellar space restricts hand-pulls to just 2, but this ensures rapid turnover & consistency of good quality beer. The boundaries of what defines a community pub are really being pushed to the limit, with no less than 12 teams representing the Lodge, at pool (men's, ladies & mixed), darts (men's & ladies), dominoes, crib, football (11-a-side & 5-a-side), 20/20 cricket & quizzes. There is also poker on Thursdays. Free pool all day every day. A wide range of food is available, including hot snacks, pasta, pies, burgers, baguettes, hot dogs, jacket potatoes & Sunday lunches.
