Rugeley's first micro-pub, opened in December 2016. The Rusty Barrel Micro Pub is located in the Fernwood Shopping Centre, off Green Lane behind the Spar, one mile from the town centre. Four beers on the bar, sourced nationally or locally direct from the breweries, plus three craft beer taps. Real ciders and perry are also available. It also offers wines and a selection of spirits and 35+ craft gins. Snacks are of the micro-pub variety - crisps, nuts, etc, and includes locally sourced pork scratchings. The pub's name derives from the owner's love of classic and rusty VW vehicles. Child friendly until 7pm and then operates an adult-only policy. There is ample free public parking out front. The pub hours vary, it's best to check the pub's Facebook page for the current opening times.
