Local beer and food near the station
The current April-November schedule runs Wednesday to Sunday, with the kitchen closing before the bar. That makes it useful for a planned pre-gig meal and less reliable as a late or early-week fallback.
Worth knowing
The short weekly schedule and early kitchen finish need checking. When the timing works, it is a friendly beer-led pub with food, sport and a genuinely useful station location.
