Plymouth City Council made the pub an Asset of Community Value in April 2013. The pub underwent a major refurbishment which sent the pub back to the 1970s. They have an extensive range of pub memorabilia displayed on pretty much every bit of wall. This, along with a reel of old TV clips, creates a pleasing feel of nostalgia. The conservatory roof if covered in just short of 5000 beer mats! The three regular live beers are supplemented with two changing ales, including beers from Bays, Otter, Sharp’s, St Austell and local brewery, Summerskills. Food is served all day, every day, including Afternoon Tea (which must be booked in advance). Families are welcome, as are dogs.
