About the Pub
The Heaton is a good deal deeper than it appears from the outside; it has a light and airy feel aided by good lighting and decor. Higher ceilings and what is now a large dining room at the back of the pub, benefit from a new skylight. The kitchen occupies an extension, and on the right hand side, a wall was inserted to create more intimate areas. The furniture is classic modern "mix and match" and good use has been made of old photos and other items of local interest. Outside at the back there is an attractive drinking area and a massive car park. Food plays a big role here, the kitchen is open daily from noon. You can choose from a taster menu of upmarket bar food or go a-la-carte where a big selection is available – duck, salmon and steaks all feature along with many other options. On Sundays you can chose from one, two or three-course lunch options. There’s entertainment too, with live acoustic music on Thursday and Friday from 8pm, and also on the fourth Saturday of the month. The other three Saturdays see DJ Gus with a mixture of classic funk and soul. There are various daily offers and deals, so look out for what is advertised.
