If you're looking for a really cheap pub then this is the place, serving Samuel Smith's brand of beers and lagers. The pub was refurbished in 2005 and is now more modern but preserves its traditional atmosphere. Also featured in CAMRA's Good Beer Guide 2002.

Travelled from Warrington for carols. Says dogs welcome, got there and they said no. Were very angry. Had to sit and freeze.
Came back, as the year before was nice, welcoming, and friendly!
The staff were lovely, embarrassed.
