THe Willow Tree is a new build JD Wetherspoons pub which was built to replace former building company offices. Despite the quite narrow street frontage, this open plan pub has a long lounge bar with a lot of seating, which eventually leads to an outdoor area (mainly used by smokers). It's usually quite busy especially at weekends.
Children under 18 can be on the premises between 8:00am and 9:00pm only.
