This is a real ale, no nonsense, pub beloved by many for just those reasons. The sign outside reads 'Ale, cider, meat,' and it does exactly what it says on the tin. They change the casks every few days with a dedication to stocking from only small, independent UK breweries. On the counter they have a display of pies, sausage rolls and often a big slab of roast pork, which they'll cut up and stuff into a bap for you. The d�cor is equally simple: wooden chairs, wooden booths, a coal fire, a piano and some old paintings, not to mention a cheerful local crowd.
