Medium sized pub on the edge of town centre with a large function room and a surprisingly large Beer Garden for a town centre pub. There is a large horseshoe bar serving up to eight beers and six ciders. Former home to J Church Brewery and sister pub to the Olde England, ten minutes walk away going out of town on the Kettering Road. Olde England labelled beers are actually contract brewed for both pubs by Potbelly in Kettering. Voted local CAMRA Town Pub of the Season Spring 2017. In 2022 & 2023 it was voted Best Local Live Venue by the the Northamptonshire Music Awards.
