This autumn, why rush when you can relax? Unwind at our cosy pub in Preston, where the only thing on the agenda is having a great time. We've got everything you need to enjoy the colder months in comfort, including delicious choices of beer and wine.  Cheers to slowing down and enjoying each season to its fullest.

Originally, anyone who wanted to trade in Preston, whether as a merchant, craftsman, market stall holder or in any other capacity, was required to be a member of the Guild Merchant. Today, we’re a pub that plies its trade in the food and drinks business and as anyone who has ever been here will tell you, very successfully. Make our family-friendly pub your favourite haunt. Call in soon. We’re on the big roundabout in Ingol.

Christmas bookings are open and our festive menus are full of delicious seasonal dishes and traditional Christmas classics.
Whether you’re planning a family dinner, a get-together with friends, or a special night out, our pub offers the perfect setting to create unforgettable memories this festive season.
