History

Ever-reliable as a place for locals to get together for good times, the site of The Tav has been continually licenced as a pub for more than 125 years, first christened as the St Leonards Hotel in 1899. It continues to operate today, with a refreshed look, a delicious menu of pub classics, and all your favourite beers.
