| I found it rather strange finding a Hopback pub in Staffordshire. But here it is. 6 real ales are served - Morland Original, Marstons Pedigree, Hopback Crop Circle & Summer Lightning, Champion Ale & Moles Landlords Choice. The cider was Westons Old Rosie. But it was unfortunately off. Whilst the welcome was friendly, there was a strange smell which was immediately noticeable on entry. The bar and lounge are separated by a disused fireplace and a small step. The bar has bare floorboards, whilst the lounge is carpeted. Not quite as good as the Black Horse in Chesterton nearby. But still a reasonable pub. I would also recommend trying the Cricketers Arms just over the park, whilst you're in the area. blue_scrumpy - 30 Dec 2010 19:08 |
| Great Pub with a good range of cask ales. The sevice has improved alot since new management took over a couple of years ago. Well worth a visit. brettski - 10 Nov 2007 15:00 |

| Oldest pub in the area, built around 1790, formerly known as The Archer. Constantly changing guest ales, low prices, friendly atmosphere. Paul - 16 Sep 2004 11:35 |
