Cosy, welcoming, local which has been a pub since 1840s. Refurbished in Jan 2016 and taken over by local pub company Banwell House, the pub now has a very smart and comfortable feeling about it. There is a central bar, with drinkers seating at the front of the pub, and there are rooms going round the back for eating and relaxing. At the bar it has a heated foot rail and radiators, possibly a unique feature of the interior. Kitchen closed (Feb 22) but pub will provide cutlery for your takeaway.
