The pub, recently renovated, is situated to the west of London Road, in quiet residential roads. The front entrance leads into the U-shaped bar, centrally located, on which five handpumps are sited, with both national and local ales thereon. Gun and Long Man Breweries feature regularly. Entertainment includes live music evenings once or twice per month on Saturdays and on all Sundays, together with a quiz night on Wednesdays and a meat raffle on Sunday afternoons. Well worth finding this historic back street local, author of “The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists”, Robert Tressell used to drink here.
