About Bolthole

A micropub in a shop parade, in the Falconwood Green area, that opened in November 2019. Seating is at high tables, wall mounted benches and high stools, with extra cabin space at rear. Unlike many micropubs, loud music is sometimes heard from the back.

Real ales are dispensed by two handpumps and sometimes others by gravity from a chilled cellar room. Card payments are accepted. A strict over 21s admission policy is operated. Please be aware that drinks will only be served up to 30 minutes before the closing times shown.

    A great little pub, tucked away within the housing estate surrounding The Green. Polite and friendly staff and a decent range of beers. Outside seating for those warmer days too. I didn't eat so no rating for food, but the beer was good. They also have a good range of gins too.

    Lovely pint of Goffs beer. Very welcoming bar staff and it is a pity it is not closer to my home.

    The bar is tastefully decorated with a wooden cabin type interior. Comfortable padded stools and bench seats at high tables complete the comfort zone. Two real ales, various ciders, spirit drinks and cocktails make a comprehensive choice possibility. Bar snacks well stocked. Noisy customers with loud raucous laughs demonstrate the acoustic disadvantages of being in a shop unit. You have to time your own chat before the next peal of jokes/stories/laughs from across the room. All told a pleasant visit ending too soon by 10pm.

    Hired the back space for my Baby shower and was perfect! The staff were attentive and good communication. Would recommend :) x
