A two roomed community pub. The bar room has a real fire and is quiet with pew style seating. The larger lounge has a stove and wall-mounted Tv. There is a small garden to the front of the pub with a car park to the left side which provides a site for an annual beer festival over the late May bank Holiday weekend. The Blue Dog no longer has a petanque piste, but teams can still enjoy a pint in the pub when playing on the new piste in the Village Hall paddock opposite. The pub is also handy for walkers at the southern end of the Viking Way. Always check that the pub is open late evenings as it will close before 11pm if all customers have left. The Blue Dog's unusual name reflects the tradition of local farm workers on the Tollemache estate being paid partly in blue tokens. The 300 year old building was once a war hospital and has a ghost - a drummer boy called Albert.
