Re: Bad Pub Guide
Can anyone tell me the name of the Pub by Church Kirk - I used to go in there with my Dad after watching cricket at West End, walked back along the canal. Best pint of Thwaites i can remember - there was a stream flowing through the cellar and the sacks were draped over the barrels and into the stream - the beer was so cold.
There was also a Duttons pub further down - about half way to the Queens.

Re: Bad Pub Guide
Thanks KSH, I knew it was the wrong thread but thought that if you all knew the bad Pubs you would know the good ones too

So your just working on the premise there's no bad bear mick, just that some are better than others, or cheaper as the case may be

Re: Bad Pub Guide
The Hyndburn Bridge. Popped in there for a teatime pint with a mate of mine after a full day doing the accounts and it was diabolical. The pub and furnishings, although not being in bad repair, just screamed out of some punters and something to make it inviting. Lighting the log fires is a surefire winner. The beer wasn't kept properly and the landlord seemed not to want our custom. We left fairly quickly.
Now The Royal in Great Harwood.....proper pub!

Re: Bad Pub Guide
I can't remember the last time i went to a 'good pub'. Cheap alcohol in shops don't help... whatever happened to community socialising??
