The finest pub in central Stroud, offering a wide and varied range of the best beers & ciders from across the country.

Converted into a pub in late November 2012 by a proprietor known previously for running Good Beer Guide pubs in East Anglia. It stands on the corner of John Street opposite the Cornhill Market, home to Stroud’s celebrated Saturday farmers’ market, in the semi-pedestrianised middle of the town centre.

Entrance is via a long hallway into the main bar which features a high counter with a white top and a brightly lit back bar showing off the wine and spirits selection. Equipped with 12 handpumps, of which one is dedicated to cider and another to perry.

Live music most Thursdays and Friday or Saturday. Fiendishly difficult quiz on aSunday set by the landlord.

Great traditional pub food served daily, curries & chillies a speciality. Sunday lunches served 1230-1430 hours.
