We have a wide range of lagers, cask ales, ciders and craft beers on draught. With an extensive wine, gin and spirit list too, we’re sure you’ll find something just for you here at The Engineer.
Our menu is full of classic pub dishes and we serve a traditional roast with homemade Yorkshires every Sunday.

Coverage of the Premier League match from Vitality Stadium. The hosts have a good recent record against their visitors having lost only one of the last eight meetings between the teams. The sole defeat in that run came in February 2024 when the Cottagers won at home 3-1 thanks to an early Bobby Decordova-Reid finish and goals on either side of the break from Rodrgio Muniz.
Coverage of the top-flight match from Elland Road. The visitors have won their past four meetings against the West Yorkshire side, and have scored four goals in three of those matches. The last fixture here between the two teams saw Tottenham come away with a 4-1 victory to send Leeds back to the Championship after a three-year stay in the top flight.
Coverage of the Premier League match from Stamford Bridge. The hosts ended a run of 10 games without a win against Liverpool when these two sides last met here at the end of last season. Goals from Enzo Fernandez, Cole Palmer and an own goal from Jarell Quansah gave Chelsea all three points in a 3-1 victory in the North-West club's first game after being crowned Premier League champions.
All the action from the match at Villa Park. The Villans claimed a 3-2 win when the teams last met here two seasons ago, but they have found wins and goals hard to come by in the early stages of the current campaign.
All the action from the Premier League match at St James' Park. Newcastle claimed a thrilling 4-3 victory in last season's corresponding fixture and also overcame Forest at The City Ground in the EFL Cup and the league, but both sides are yet to find their top form on a consistent basic this term
All the action from the match at Molineux. Brighton claimed a 2-0 win in last season's corresponding fixture thanks to goals by Danny Welbeck and Brajan Gruda, and Wolves have struggled in the early stages of the current campaign.
Coverage of the Premier League match from Hill Dickinson Stadium. The hosts have a fantastic recent record against their visitors having not lost any of their previous nine matches against the South London club. On top of that Palace have only won two of the last 24 matches against Everton since 2015, with both victories coming back-to-back in the 2021/22 season.
Coverage of the Premier League match from Gtech Community Stadium. Despite causing the visitors trouble in games over the last few years, the hosts have only beaten Pep Guardiola's side twice in eight fixtures since they entered the top flight in 2021. Those two wins did come in City's treble-winning season however, as the Bees did the double over their visitors in the 2022/23 campaign.
