I hope that this lovely spot continues to feed the great people from this town and that Burslem get's the future...

Sandwiches, beans on toast sausage butties and baked potatoes with various fillings. Decent cakes too on offer. Take a look at the Lemmy statue after your brew. That draws a crowd from all...
