See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Opened in December 2020 in a former pet shop is Cornwall’s latest micropub, serving 3 varying real ales by gravity dispense, and up to 7 varying real ciders depending on availability atnd demand. Situated at the junction of Church Road and the main road to Kelly Bray and Launceston, this is a quiet pub inside, where conversation is the main entertainment, with no distracting TV, jukebox, machine games or table games. On entering the pub there is a bar area with a serving work top and displaying on the chalkboard a beer menu and list of ciders on offer. Some stools and a drinking shelf are found at the bar and opposite wall. This interestingly-shaped wooden-floored pub is furnished throughout with functional barrels, wooden tables and chairs, and the walls are adorned with local pictures. Outside is a patio with decking and good wooden patio furniture next to the main roads. No in-house food is available but local takeaways will deliver to the pub. Live folk music appears monthly. The pub might open occasionally on Sunday afternoons 1400-1800.
