Opened in 2016, the Tap and Vent was the first micropub in Longridge. Situated in a row of shops on Towneley Parade the pub provides a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Four handpumps serve a selection of rotating cask ales, typically from microbreweries. Craft, bottled and keg beers plus keg cider, fine wines and Prosecco are also available. There is also a large range of gins. A genuine free house encouraging the art of conversation.
