Formally owned by the family of Lord Melbourne, this attractive stone built pub is tucked away off Old Duston village main street. This Grade II listed building is a lovely old fashioned village pub. There is a central bar and a long, carpeted bar/lounge with a drop down smaller drinking area behind a central stone fireplace. The pub has two gardens, one beside the pub and another on the other side of the road. The landlord is a real ale enthusiast and is planning beer fests in the future.
Good location, own car park, nice staff. Recommend.
Love this place, have recently moved back to the area, so glad we have! This is a typical good old fashioned pub, no food served on site but they have various food trucks on their car park several times a week which you are welcome to enjoy inside, locals are all very friendly and say hello 😊 the pub is also dog friendly, my cockapoo goes in the door even if we’re just passing on a walk! All in all a great place!
What a great atmosphere this village pub has, great friendly service, both staff and customers are super friendly and has good weekend entertainment. Really impressed the first time I went there this weekend.
My first visit, I have recently moved to the area, looking for a local friendly place to find new friends. Did I pick the wrong night??? Atmosphere terrible, people just looked, I spoke and was ignored!!!! I tried to order a drink, it was busy, the barman, a short bloke who was sporting a big bushy beard, was rude, when I was pondering on what to order, then ignored me and started to serve another person who was obviously a regular as they were on first name terms. I had previously seen videos of the groups and singers, but you couldn't swing a cat in this place, yet fill it with a group and still have space for customers. My first impressions - don't bother with this place, I walked around the area and found The Squirrels, 100% better, friendly and served me straight away, they were helpful and gave advice.
Always a good pint and our go to typical 'local' pub. Last visited to watch the Grand National - great atmosphere. Large beer garden, so plenty of outside space.
