The Plough Inn

Head out towards Bickington and you'll find yourself in proper local territory—the kind of place where the barmaid knows what everyone's drinking before they order. The Plough Inn sits comfortably in that sweet spot between dated and characterful, all worn wood and lived-in corners that no amount of trendy rebranding could manufacture. You're coming here for uncomplicated pints, solid pub food that doesn't pretend to be anything it's not, and the kind of conversation that only happens when you're surrounded by people who've been coming here for years. It's the pub you'd hope exists in your neighbourhood.
