Indoor trading area
The internal trading area is situated on two levels with the lower level predominantly used for dining, providing seats for up to 40. This space is traditionally furnished yet stylish with large open windows, allowing the room to appear light and airy. There is a section perfect for small functions and events, possibly even weddings. The upper level is split into three areas, all accessible from the centrally positioned bar servery. Two of these areas are for diners and the side is used by the casual drinkers, with traditional fixed leather seats, oozing with character and class. On the same level is a large, fully equipped commercial kitchen, perfect for developing the much-loved food offering. Live music acts are popular in the pub at the weekend, bringing in a brilliant atmosphere for the local community.
