About the Pub
Is a participant in the annual Bishops Castle Beer Festival held each July. One of fifteen pubs in the Branch area which appeared in the first Good Beer Guide in 1974. And here's what it said! "Magnificent example of a Georgian hotel, retaining atmosphere. Meals of excellent quality, Mitchells & Butlers mild & bitter" These days, the four regular beers are supplemented by a fifth in the summer. But look out for the Real Ale Tasting Board, where one can try three of the ales, supplied in three one third pint glasses.
The Bicycle, Dog & Boot Wash Area in the car park is an unusual pub feature.
