Traditional and quiet back-street inn established around 1770. Lies just off the centre of this picturesque town, a short walk from the seafront. An old-style wood panelled bar with an open fire attracts a strong local trade. There is a dedicated dining area serving good food. Three changing beers are normally available. Dogs, but not children, are welcome indoors. Hosts the traditional 'King of Chit' and Black Rod fishing contests.
