About the Pub

On a visit in mid-Jan 2022 only the one cask ale available reflecting the low footfall and trade in this area - St Austell Tribute. Clips for Adnams Ghost Ship and Taylor's Landlord were turned around. Only one cask will be available until trade picks up. The pub will also close earlier if trade does not warrant remaining open. Food not currently being served.

A small, wedge-shaped pub with a wooden bar and seating in booths down one side of the pub and bar stools down another. This, coupled with the paraphernalia around the walls, gives a very cosy feel. It is famous for its stopped clock (a German zeppelin dropped a bomb on the pub in 1915 killing 3 men and stopping the clock). The food is traditional and home-made with main meals served 12.00 - 14.30, at other times snacks such as nachos and sausages are available until around 22.00. Reported as "free of tie" in the summer of 2016 and plans to put in a fourth pump to compliment the three they already have. Toilets only accessible by steep stairs.

Sits directly opposite a realtively new Premier Inn.
