The Glass Onion

The beers tend to be served with a tight sparkler here, but don't be shy, ask them to take it off. This is a single roomed pub at the top of town (follow The Broadway to the top and round to the left). The bar covers the compete frontage of the pub and has mostly pine furniture with stools and square tables, though there are a couple of padded benches along wood walls too. The strange thing is the high wood screen directly in line with the door as you enter. There are only stools behind which actually clog up the bar space. The bar is long and there are plenty of Payne beers to choose from. Access for the disabled is fair as there is only a small step into the pub as can be seen from the picture (right). To the left of the entrance is the sitting area and to the right is the pool table which has a lot of space around it. There is no food served here at present. Outside at the rear is a large beer garden with a play area for children. There is also lighting here for dark evenings. There is no accommodation here but there is the De Rosalia Hotel just 20 yards away (01733) 341128.
