Also a music venue, serves cheese toasties and games. Kind of dive-y but I love it. Friendly staff.

Parks & Nature

Only 5 minutes from my front door. The park starts with a beautiful pond full of swans and bird life and little fish. Within ten minutes, you wouldn't know you were in a city. Great for walking, running, cycling, lying in the grass listening to the trees move.
