Micro Pub opened in 2022 with normally one cask ale and three key keg.

The Old Forge a lovely, cosy family pub which is very friendly and welcoming. The fabulous old building dating back to at least the 18th century complete with massively thick walls and original ceiling beams. This micropub has two rooms. The larger one contains the bar and a lovely old fireplace. The cozy snug room has an eclectic collection of comfortable seats.

One real ale is on sale from a local brewery, often Fell, Settle, Great Corby and Tirril. A selection of craft keg beers is available from the Hand Brew Co., a micro-brewery from Brighton with a family connection to the pub owners.

Cheese plates with an excellent selection of cheeses are available at any time. Hot food is available in the evening. There are also regular events, including movie nights, and craft afternoons with drawing. The bar has a “toad in the hole” pub game which involves throwing brass coins or “toads” at a lead topped table with a small hole in the middle. It is fun and quite difficult!
