A little more about us

With no background music, no games machines, no big screen televisions, and no meals, the Rule is just the place to relax and have a drink and a chat. Enjoy the extensive range of cask beers, draught lagers and ciders, fine wines, malt whiskies, gins, and other spirits in comfortable traditionally furnished rooms, in the secluded suntrap beer garden, or by the open fire. Take advantage of the free Wi-Fi and the selection of classic board games. Dogs are welcome throughout and water bowls are always available. Children are welcome until 9pm.
