Independent brewery cask beers

Towards the end of 2001, Lancaster gained two new pubs, both members of the national Wetherspoon chain. For those few who don't know this company, their pubs are generally very large, with low prices and modernist decor. This pub has been built behind an old shop facade so has the picture windows that modern pubs often have anyway. The drinking space is only broken by two raised areas and thus has a very open, non-intimate atmosphere, which seems to appeal to younger drinkers, though there are plenty of older ones too. Video screens appeared in 2005 — in the daytime,the sound is turned off, in the evening they show MTV-style pop videos with audible music. The pub organises its own beer festivals from time to time in addition to the national Wetherspoons festivals. Close to the bus station. Westons Vintage and Old Rosie. Seats and tables at the front are used by smokers.

Open 9-12 (1 Fri, Sat)
Food: 9-11
