I haven't eaten here but its fast becoming the number 1 rock bar in Preston. Always a band or singer on Fridays and Saturdays. Check their website for latest updates. Good beer cocktails and shots always a great atmosphere

Not changed much since I went in 20yrs ago! Which is a good thing. Went to see band Ruff Kutz who were awesome 🤟 Was glad to see pool table still there in same place, I like that the pub is kinda separated into two parts, the seating area near window & with pool table, then the rest open with space for bands to perform. It's not huge space there so if you're by the speakers your ears might be ringing lol but it has a fab cosy atmosphere & staff all were great. Quick service at the bar. Loved it!
