Classic Victorian Grade II listed pub in the main shopping area close to the historic open market, with its tiled bar and walls and mosaic floor, it has a nationally important historic pub interior. The two front rooms, with real fires are adorned with Robinson's memorabilia and photos of old Preston; the famous "hall of mirrors" seating area is to the rear. There are ten handpumps usually featuring four Robinson's beers and four ever-changing guest beers coming from far and wide. These are sourced through Titanic but are not simply limited to their own range, so you're likely to find a varied range on offer. There is usually a range of flat ciders on offer too such as Old Rosie and Flat Tyre on the remaining handpumps. There is also an extensive range of pork pies from Jones of Huddersfield to compliment the drinks offering. There is an open smoking terrace and an upstairs function room, which is also now open every weekend as "Unplugged", a craft and cider bar with live music. Awarded the 2019/20 George Lee Memorial Trophy, the local branch's premier award.
