Popular Grade II-listed free-house a short walk from the centre of the town, on the way to the railway station.

There is a smart public bar at the front, and a larger, more comfortable, split level lounge to the rear, which also features an unusual curved wooden ceiling and a framed 1853 map of Burton. Brewery and drink-related memorabilia abound, including (in the lounge) framed lists of Burton breweries (1870-1880) and licensed premises (1911).

A number of continental bottled beers and English fruit wines are also stocked.

Hot meals on Tuesday evening themed food nights only (must be pre-booked); see Facebook or Twitter for details. Snacks, such as pork pies, available at other times.

Historic Interest

Built circa 1830 as a house and converted into a pub in the 1850s. At some stage, probably in the late 1800s, it became an Eadie’s house until that brewery was taken over by Bass in 1932, and then an Ind Coope (Allied Breweries) pub as a result of a ‘pub swap’ in 1978. It was bought by the Burton Bridge Brewery in 1998; sold to current owners in February 2019.
