Popular 1950s two-roomed pub which has been run by an enthusiastic CAMRA member for 30 years. There is a quiet lounge to the left, while to the right is a more lively bar/games room where a quiz is held on Sunday night. A beer festival is held on the third weekend of August. The Piper is close to Wicksteed Park, one of Britain's first theme parks. An outdoor seating area is across the road from the pub. Tries to have a dark beer as one of the guest ales.
