Historic pub which was once part of Preston's premier hotel. The main bar is accessed from the street via a courtyard, but there is also Harry's Bar at the front of the building, although this is only used on occasions. This pub can get busy at weekends. Drinkers should note that real ale is only available in the rear bar and that the handpumps are towards the rear and partly hidden by a pillar (so easily missed). Up to three cask ales are usually available.
