An old-fashioned pub just a few yards down from Stone station, and around 200m from the Trent & Mersey Canal. Two rooms at the front, one of which is dedicated to pool, the other being a comfy bar with a coal fire. To the rear is a large lounge with a darts board. TV screens in every room, largely dedicated to BT and Sky sport. Live music Sat nights, open-mike nights every fourth Sunday and a themed disco third Sunday in the month. For the future there are big plans for the pub including another three handpulls. There will always be a local beer and at least one micro brewery beer; aso there'll be “Talbot Ale” (brewed by Marstons). Bar snacks, Sunday roasts and popup themed food nights are available.
