If you want food with your beer then take a walk towards the ground then the Counting House just of Almond Road just past the Tigers ground 40 Almond Road, Freemans Park the food itself is average although nothing spectacular, had the rump steak, and chips at Β£4.99 so fairly reasonably priced there is a range of cask ales not too bad for the area.
