The Old Grindstone is where Crookes comes together for great pints, tasty food, and laid-back vibes. Whether you’re here for live sport, weekend tunes, or a midweek catch-up, you’ll always find something going on and someone to share it with.

Our new guest kitchen, Hefty Hen, is serving up mouth-watering fried chicken — crispy, juicy, and perfect with a cold pint or a cocktail. Add in our classic pub grub, student-friendly prices, and private karaoke rooms, and you’ve got everything you need for a proper good time.

From quiz nights to live music and special offers, The Old Grindstone is all about good food, great company, and that unbeatable local feel. Pop in, grab a seat, and see what’s on tap this week.
