Bear and Wolf is a town centre bar on Worcester Street serving six cask ales, still ciders and craft beer on tap. Inside it is deceptively spacious, with comfy sofas, mixed tables and bar stools, and no gaming machines so conversation carries. It was local CAMRA Gold Pub of the Year in 2022 and 2023 and Silver in 2025, and runs an open mic on alternate Sundays.
