The bar

Rotating beers, from IPA to stout

The beer list changes most days, with local and international breweries across cask and keg. The menu is built around matching dishes with the beers, while wine and spirits cover the rest of the bar. It’s a quick walk from Angel and a good place to settle in for a few rounds.

The garden

A proper space at the back

The rear beer garden has plenty of outdoor seating, including covered tables, and dogs are welcome. Garden tables are walk-in only and the garden closes before 9pm, so it suits an afternoon pint or an early evening outside. Sundays bring the pub’s roast, with weekly beer pairings from the changing board.
