This pub is a former Joules brewery (of Stone) tied house. Originally called The Union, was bought by the then manager in early 1980s, who is the father of current landlady, who's been very much hands on and in charge for over 30 years. Her attention to detail, customer service and beer quality is outstanding, so is well worth seeking out. The walls are adorned with many old photos of bygone days of Leek and the surrounding area. The original pub well is still in situ towards the rear of the building, and will be illuminated on request. Frequented by lots of league pub sports teams, darts, domino, pool etc. Opening hours: Mon - Thurs 4 - 11, Fri & Sat 3 - 12 Sun 4 - 10.30. Note temp opening hours during late summer months (in non team league games period) as above but closing early on Sunday and Tuesday at 9pm, last orders called at 8.30.
