Whilst promoted as a wine bar for the over 25s, it has quite a pubby feel, especially earlier in the week. This reflects that it is a former pub and Good Beer Guide regular, the Sanford Arms, which closed in 1999. The single bar room has a slate floor and a compact bar in one corner dispensing the single real ale and a wide selection of wines. Passing through to the rear of the bar area, you come to a conservatory which in turn leads you to an attractive large terraced garden, which boasts a covered smoking area with sofas to relax in and table service. Monday night there is an open mic, Tuesday is quiz night and is very busy, arrive early to avoid disappointment.
