Tap and Spile Pub - Monkgate

The Tap and Spile pub in Monkgate has a very European looking facade. It serves lunchtime meals and sells a range of cask conditioned beers and runs interesting events like Pork Pie competitions and music nights. Friday nights there is a free folk session that is often jam packed with musicians.

Black Swan Inn - Peaseholme Green

I do enjoy timbered buildings. The Black Swan is an old Inn with a curious interior. It is thought that although General Wolfe did not live here he was probably conceived here whilst his parents were staying in the Inn. Nowadays the pub provides a good venue for various musical events including a folk night on Thursdays and also Jazz nights.
