This is the Taproom of Ben's Brewery, which opened on 18th March 2022 less than 12 months after the family-run brewery first started. Located in Market Place in a former café premises it is a stone's throw away from other micros, the Bob Inn, Shed & Garden and Riley's Taproom and provides further diversity to Chorley's bustling pub scene.

The interior has a rustic feel with recycled wooden pallets lining the walls.

Six cask ales are served, generally from Ben's own range but with occasional guests also available. Draft beers are available in third of a pint glasses upwards. In addition, there is a range of craft ales (some of which are real), real ciders and a good selection of bottles and cans at good prices, which may be drunk on the premises or taken away. No food is served, but you are welcome to bring your own.
