Imposing pub on a busy intersection. Inside is a spacious open plan interior with linked bar, lounge and dining sections set around an island bar reminiscent of traditional London style bars of old. A wide ranging menu offers baguettes, jacket potatoes, salads, vegetarian dishes, pastas, curries, grills, burgers, fish choices, family favourites, and children's meals. Outside is a large decked patio from which to watch the world and the traffic pass by in fine weather. Entertainment includes quiz night on Thursday evening 9-11 and live variety performances on Saturday evenings from 9-11pm. Newly refurbished accommodation available.

Historic Interest

Thought to originate circa 1820, prior to becoming a pub in the late 1880's/early 1900's, this was a meeting place for postmen to take refreshment before they set off to deliver their post to the local valleys. Owned by Ansells Brewery from around 1950 to 2001.
