Bod at Weeping Cross

Buried deep in the Stafford suburbs, this Bod (on Bodmin Avenue - hence the name) was opened in 2018, the first of a chain of Bods operated by Titanic Brewery. It is a strange sort of hybrid between a coffee shop and a pub. The ambience is more Starbucks than Dog & Duck but there is a proper bar serving Titanic's range of ales and other alcoholic drinks. Interestingly, this shop unit was formerly a Co-op; the Co-op has moved across the road into a new building that replaced a pub. Perhaps Bod represents the future for pubs.
