The 2018 menu is out. Be honest, you've all given up on your new year diets now anyway.

It's fair to say we like Tickety Brew beers here. So much, we're having an unofficial Tap Room take over.

This is happening tomorrow night. Any one who gets up and does a Fall song gets free beer. Rest In Peace Mark E Smith.

This week's jackpot is now up to a whopping £162. Plus the usual money and beer to be won in the quiz. Attests at 8.30 on Wednesday, worth braving the weather for.

We're closed due to a power cut. Hope to get it sorted soon.

The beauty of an open mic night, you get to hear some amazing musicians. Just been blown away by the talent of an 18 year old. So good in fact, I'm going to be hiring her for a Saturday night slot. Look out for Alex Strickland Music, she'll be on very soon and you need to hear her voice.

The jackpot question this week is up to a whopping £147.00, even Donald is excited about that. Plus the usual mix of music, sport and general knowledge. The only way to spend a Wednesday night. Starts at 8.30

My new years resolution is to keep building on the music in the bar. This Thursday sees the return of the weekly open mic. Hosted by one of our favourites, the grunge blues king Paul McHale. Just had a conversation with another local musician about coming down. There could be some serious talent in the room this Thursday. You'd hate to miss this.

On the subject of music, it's back next week after a short break. A great way to see some of the areas real talent, so come along, bring a guitar and join in.

Another weekend, another great line up of music. This afternoon we have one of our favourites, Tim Wright with his laid back guitar, perfect to sing along to (which I do often.) Then Bamhoot Music from 7 to keep it flying. Tomorrow afternoon sees Tim back for his Sunday residency, The Sunday Blues. As well as this I'm putting the final touches to a few bigger musical events coming up this year. Going to make this the number one music venue in the area, with the talent we have round here that shouldn't be hard.

Quiz Night is back on tomorrow. £135 for the Jackpot Question this week. Cracking start to the year.

Private party in at the moment. Open to the public at 6. Of you want to hire the bar, come and chat.
