Pint Shop
A craft-beer house in a listed 1830 building once lived in by E. M. Forster.
Heritage
Open to all
Pint Shop is at 10 Peas Hill, in the middle of the city centre. It is the first Pint Shop, opened in November 2013; the company also runs a beerhouse in Oxford. The company says it found an empty Grade II listed office building dating from 1830, which had once been a house where the novelist E. M. Forster lived.
Craft beer and the Beer Act
The pub's story starts with the Beer Act of 1830, which let anyone who paid a small fee brew and sell beer from their own home. The all-day menu runs Monday to Saturday and ranges from scotch eggs, whitebait and mussels to pork belly, battered haddock and fishcakes.
