The Coat & Bear has undergone an extensive renovation seamlessly blending its charm with our signature Heartwood touch. Set in a beautifully restored Georgian building, this pub with rooms offers more than just a stay – it offers an experience. We’ve upheld our renowned Heartwood standards while infusing the space with a chic elegance that sets it apart. Whether you’re stopping by for a pre-race tipple or savouring a midday meal in our open and airy dining area, The Coat & Bear is the perfect destination for those seeking a refined yet relaxed atmosphere.

The Coat & Bear is thoughtfully divided into two distinct areas: the pub side on the right and the rooms side on the left. This allows our guests staying in the rooms to relax in peace until they choose to join us for a meal, while our dining guests benefit from a dedicated space to enjoy the charm of our gorgeous space and exceptional food and drink.

Savour a delicious seasonal meal paired with a refreshing local brew, and take a seat at our stunning floating island bar – the centrepiece of our creatively designed and stunning dining space. Position yourself in the heart of the pub by the roaring fire set in a quiet alcove encircled by exposed brick, or enjoy a front-row view through our beautiful bifold doors, an ideal spot for people-watching.
