Large, much renovated, now single bar roadhouse, with several raised area, built for Benskins in 1937/8 on the site of the former Church Farm to benefit from the trade of the recently opened Western Avenue. Situated opposite the iconic Hoover Building, it was part of the Farmhouse Inns brand following a 2016 refurbishment but another refurb now sees it as a Greene King Pub and Carvery. Although the "Wacky Warehouse" is now long gone, there is an area for the under 5's and the pub is much more open and geared for "family dining". The carvery is open daily 11:30am - 2:30pm and 4:30pm - 8pm with other meals outside these times. The Premier Inn next door offers accommodation facilities resulting in the pub opening for breakfast from 7am (8am weekends). Alcohol is probably from 11.30am.
