THE MAYPOLE

With nearly thirty beers on tap and a central location, Maypole is definitely a great place to come and sample the region's real ales. There's also a gin bar on site! There are two basement rooms and a beer garden. Italian-influenced dishes include pizzas, lasagne and risottos. It's an authentic bar run by the same Italian family for over 30 years. An address worth supporting in the face of the chains that are buying up most English pubs.
