Open mic night

Our open mic runs every Monday evening from 8:00pm to 11:30pm. Bring an instrument or just bring your voice. Monday also brings deals on food, spirits, shots and ales.

Not just bands

Live sport, inside and out

We show live sport both inside the pub and in our covered outside area at the rear, so there is room for everyone on a big match day.

Opening hours may vary on home football games, when we often open early. Check our Facebook and Instagram for up to date information.

Eating before the band starts?

The kitchen gets busy on gig nights, so book your table in advance.
