This pub is the tap for Oakham Ales brewery and is currently under threat of demolition to make way for a new shopping centre. Normally twelve real ales available including several fron the Oakham Ales range. The food is good value Thai. Late licence at the weekends with live music some weeks.

Currently closed. Has been bought by Wetherspoons group and will become a "new" type of Spoons without branding, with beers from around the world, different food, etc - or so they say.

Beer went downhill for a while - problems with cooling kit, etc. Twelve new cooled hand pumps , lines, etc fitted and the beer is now in great nick again. Oriental restaurant upstairs and the food is available in the bar. Large beer garden. Twelve real ales normally available including several from Oakham Ales and ever changing guests. Live music starts at 11pm on Friday and Saturday. Entry charge after 11pm. Open until 1.30.

Excellent two room pub owned by Batemans. Normally three Bateman beers and seven regularly changing guest beers. No hand pumps. All served straight from the casks in the cellar. Three traditional ciders/perries. European bottled beers. No keg/smooth beers of any kind. No juke box/fruit machines/TV/muzak. No food except locally made pork pies and pasties. Voted local CAMRA pub of the year 2005. Not to be missed if you are visiting Peterborough.

This pub has now reopened as the Drapers Arms with a mostly good range of real ales at good prices. Completely no smoking.
