What kind of pub it is

Come here if you want a properly kept pint — it's on CAMRA's recommended list, which in Bath means the cellar work is taken seriously, somewhere with genuine age to it, rather than a refit pretending to be old, bringing the dog or eating as well as drinking.

  • The kitchen serves food, but hours are usually shorter than the bar's — if you're eating late, ring ahead.
  • Dogs are welcome in the bar.
  • There's no beer garden — it's an indoor pub, which suits Bath's weather more often than not.
  • Real ale is the reason most people come, and the range changes, so ask what's on rather than ordering blind.

Last orders shift across the week: Friday runs to 23:00, while Sunday winds up earlier at 22:30.
