Micropub opened in 2015 in a former pet food shop with an attractive blue tiled frontage. Drinks are dispensed from a temperature-controlled cellar via a small bar counter. Conversation is encouraged by the layout of high and low narrow tables. The walls are decorated with amusing posters and postcards. Every six weeks, there is a charity fundraising event, in aid of the local Strode Park Foundation, which might be a quiz or food evening or BBQ. The south-facing garden is a good place to enjoy a drink. A good range of ciders and wines is also available, the ciders are from Lilley's which CAMRA doesn't regard as real. Opens on bank holiday Mondays. Closing time is often extended if the pub is busy.
