Under new management from the end of May-2022, this pub is steeped in history, of coaches and horses. Well worth reading up on that, as this place would have been the local stop for the Ranmoor gentry back in the day. The poor would have walked before the trams came through this way on the way to Fulwood.
The pub looks amazing in summer or winter, the light gives a very different feel depending on the season. The hanging baskets in June look perfect.
A quiet night of conversation was had with friends on 19-Nov, and a couple of beers, before heading for a local curry. Slightly disappointed that the Estrella beer from Barcelona was no longer on tap, but the bar served beer to take out for our meal and we will definitely be back, as this place deserves to be busier.
Just done up and looks nice after it's refurb. Beer was well kept and they had gluten-free beer on tap. Personally I prefer a quiet pub to one with loud music, but understand we aren't all alike. I'll probably only use it on quiet nights.
Very good real pub, great ales and a very good atmosphere, staff really friendly.
