This popular, award-winning local never fails to impress, so it’s worth the uphill trudge out of the town centre. You’ll be rewarded with a classic multi-roomed local that has adapted to the times with a wealth of activities, including live music. Or you could just settle in a cosy corner and work your way through 14 cask ales sourced from micro-breweries far and wide, plus six ever changing craft kegs and a real farmhouse cider on hand pull, too. Locally made pork pies are a draw. The Magnet offers it’s own in-house brewery, Watts Brewing, which you can survey from the back room.
