Refurbished in a style sympathetic to the name, the pub has three separate drinking areas, two served by a central bar with the third one underneath accessed by a spiral staircase. Food is served throughout. Close to the town hall, the letting rooms have car parking facilities in the original cobbled courtyard behind the pub accessed through the narrow coaching archway. Reached by a raised entrance under the archway, there are five handpumps on the bar, and you're likely to find three cask ales including the house beer, Shakesbeer and a still cider at this popular town centre pub.
