Alnwick's micro pub. Great selection of real ales both national and local. There's even locally produced gin and whisky available. Friendly bar staff.

What a fantastic place to spend the evening, not a pub as such more like like someone's front-room with a great selection of beers and spirits, friendly staff and pork scratchings. Great atmosphere from the people that use the place nobody shouting or being too loud, just people that talk . Very clean & tidy place toilets are up a few steps .Would definitely recommend this place.Carl

No food. Nice, cosy and friendly. We have regular meetings here and always recieve a warm welcome. Very reasonable prices. No onside parking but can park on road after 6pm or use public car park behind the Playhouse, a few minutes walk.For those with mobility issues,Has a step into building and stairs to the top half of the bar and a lot of steep stairs up to the room which is for hire.

Came here this evening for some beers, as we were staying in a guesthouse around the corner.It's a great little place. The owner was super friendly and knowledgeable about what we'd like.Had some games to play which we loved, and the cutest doggy.Stayed for 2, but would definitely come back next time we visit Alnwick.

I'm no beer connoisseur but there were 9 different beers I like either on hand pump or draught. Only had time for 3 real ales which were all great, sadly didn't have time for the brew dog options, the shipyard or the Citra ale. The wife had white wine and prosecco. Prices seemed reasonable too with the seating, decor and atmosphere pleasant. Happy we called in while on holiday. Cheers

Excellent ales and friendly young guy behind the bar. Price was very good.

I have seen that Alnwick’s first micro bar was open so we had to call in. A great variety of very well kept local cask ale, local gins, spirits, keg and soft drinks were available.The bar was very knowledgeable and we had a good chat about the brewing industry.We have really enjoyed ours visits to great ale house and when back in Alnwick will be calling again.There is parking on the Main Street in Alnwick which is not far to walk. We had bicycles so we’re able to lock up outside the bar.
Proper real ale bar. Similar to our craft bar in scarborough. Ace beers, comfy seats, what more could we ask for?

Good range of cask ales, dog friendly, nice folks.Generally cool vibe, though we went right as it opened at 4:30pm on a Monday so were the only folks in and had to create a bit of our own ambiance.

Fabulous town centre micro pub serving an astonishing range of real ales, ciders and spirits. We had a really warm welcome and enjoyed every minute of being there. Well deserved good beer guide listing. Do not miss this place if you are visiting Alnwick.

My wife and I had an all-too-brief visit to this super bar whilst waiting for a table at the nearby Caffè Tirreno (excellent BTW, and they recommended the Ale Gate).It has more of a bar feel than a traditional pub, but none the worse for that. The atmosphere was lively and there was a wide mix of customers. The service was very friendly and the bar had a great range of drinks at very reasonable prices. What's not to like? Recommended.

Popped in on the off chance with our relatives from Canada and were welcomed with a smile. Great knowledge and friendliness.
