Fantastic real ale pub in the centre of Ashby. Would highly recommend. Definitely go for the Ra Ra Rasputin if you are there around Christmas! Don't do food but have pop-ups in the car park from time to time.

Worlds most impatient bar tender and unfortunately, I think he’s the bar manager. The atmosphere is lovely here but, he is so rude it’s put me right off ever visiting again. Such a shame because it’s a great place

Wonderful place to get a good quality drink There is a large selection of tap house ales and cider along with some spirits. With sensible prices! The small size of the venue makes it a cosy atmosphere which also welcomes dogs (but not children). There are regular visiting food vendor evenings where you can sample original food whilst supping a quality drink. One of the best places to get a drink.

Really well priced, service was impeccable and if you're lucky enough to grab a seat by the fire I don't think you'll be leaving in a hurry. Dog friendly which was obvious as there were several really cute dogs in here whilst we had a few drinks. Will definitely be coming back! 🙏🏻

Well long story shory the bar staff was rude as f*** and the bar man running the pub wanted to kick up out for spilling a single drink, was a complete overaction. The bar mans language was abusive and made our group fell very uncomfortable. Refused to give a coat back at the end of the night and slammed the door in our face as we left as they were closing at 10pm on a Friday night!! Would not recommend this place as the staff made my whole family feel very uneasy. Whoever runs the this place is place is full of power greed and doesn't respect his client's.

Firstly the beer was really excellent, but was unfortunately let down on a very quiet shift by the attitude of the team. The service model wasn’t explained at the door, and we assumed due to the lack of attentiveness, that we had to go to the bar to order. When I did so, the server who was standing around, got annoyed with me and told me not to get up next time. Very difficult when the service is so inattentive.

Lovely beer me and the partner love the beers they have on tap nice and cold and clean shiny glasses not like some of the bars around town. They also offer to buy beer and take away home with you we loved it. we will be returning again and we have heard all positive reviews about this place.

Lots of choice of craft ales or perhaps a cheeky G & T. There is always a superb range of bar snacks available but last Wednesday night Mrs Patel`s street food was available from the rear of the pub. Pay separately and eat it at your seat. Absolutely delicious, fragrant, quite spicy but not blow your head off heat. Impressive and good value for money. Many thanks.
