Panelled walls, featured wallpaper and a combination of high and low-level seating add character and comfort to the space. Fixed bench seating alongside freestanding tables provides flexible arrangements for the customers, and the wooden flooring adds warmth to the modern setting. TVs are positioned around the room showing live sports, with a pool table and jukebox located towards the rear of the pub and near the exit to the outdoor space.
