Food Scene

If you want to try something a bit different for your evening meal - try the town's Nepalese restaurant. Its staff are delightful and the food is spicy but not greasy. Yum.

Drinks & Nightlife

My local pub is the closest pub to the Hall and Woodhouse brewery, about 200 m from where the beer is made. They do simple pub meals that rarely disappoint, and the beer is good.
