Warwick's first alehouse offers a friendly, relaxed atmosphere and traditional beers served both on handpump and straight from the cask. Popular with real ale enthusiasts and local residents, the small bar is housed in a former shop just below the West Gate and within easy walking distance of the castle. It is decorated with a large collection of pub memorabilia. A good selection of ciders is also available. No food is served but you are welcome to bring your own.
