Pub Layout

There is a function room situated upstairs in the pub, which has its own bar and can hold up to twenty people. This is perfect for private parties and community events. A small, but EHO compliant commercial kitchen is through the bar area and can be utilized to serve functions. The pool table is in a separate area and is located to the rear of the pub, in the perfect location to welcome in sports teams and continue trade as usual in busy periods.
