We have a large selection of award winning real ales, continental lagers and wheat beers, ciders and high quality wines from around the world for your enjoyment, either with a meal or without!

We take great pride in our ales as we do in our food and we have the greatest pleasure in informing you that we have recently been awarded the Cask Marque Accreditation which is only awarded to the hand full of pubs that serve the perfect pint.

We are very proud of our real ales and try to feature small micro-breweries wherever possible. We are not attached to any brewery and therefore not tied to any specific beer, which means we can offer a wider choice of real ales for the pleasure of our customers.

PRIDE OF PENDLE & PENDLE WITCHES BREW
From Moorhouse's Brewery Burnly,Lancashire. Moorhouse's Brewery was established in 1865 by William Moorhouse, a Burnley man who took great pride in his town and his craft. The Brewery remained in the Moorhouse family for generations and even today the owners maintain the traditions and values established all those years ago. Pendle Witches Brew is produced by craftsmen using traditional brewing techniques and equipment, some of which date back nearly a century. The name Pendle Witches Brew originates from Pendle Hill in Lancashire, a striking geographical feature in the shadow of the brewery, and an area stepped in legends of witchcraft that date back to 1580. Back then Witches Brew meant something very different from today! We have some of Moorhouses most famous beers including Pride Of Pendle ABV 4.1% & Pendle Witches Brew ABV 5.1%.
