Traditional back-street local with a small, comfortable bar room and two larger rooms off to the right, one with a pool table; note the genuine Minton tiles in the drinking corridor, the only pub in the local area to have them. There is a folk night every other Friday and large screens to show sporting events. There is a small smoking patio to the rear. The guest beer will usually be the Joule's seasonal ale. Potteries CAMRA Pub of the Month July 2010.
