Molly House

A former worsted tailors shop in a street behind Canal Street that may well have started a new movement in the village, it opened as a bar and cafe in December 2010. Not just a bar, it does 20 different teas, specialist coffees, and high-end spirits. The name derives from the London molly houses of the 18th & 19th Century. Set on two levels, its decor is described as post-Victorian decadent shabby chic. 'The Tea Room' where the kitchen is sited has the cask ale bar together with food servery. It is furnished with wooden tables, chairs and benches. Upstairs in The Bordello', the decor and lighting is more intimate with sofas and a fireplace. . An outside smoking and drinking terrace opens off this room. Food service is noon till 8 with tapas being a speciality. Vegan options are available. The beer range specialises in local brewers and the policy is to serve examples of many different beer styles.
