Featured in many beer publications and even TV programmes this enduring Victorian gem is worth missing a train for. A sympathetic refurbishment has previously taken place. A bank of handpumps dispense a variety of ever-changing beers, many of which are locally sourced, plus at least one real cider or perry. A good range of bottled beers is also available. The food available varies through the week; there maybe only pies etc on some weekdays, free hot food Thursdays from 6pm (first-come-first-served) street-food on Fridays, specials on Saturday and Sunday menu on Sundays. Quiz every Sunday evening, Spanish classes Mondays, Folk music Tuesdays. Opening hours may vary.
