Proper old fashioned pub, only drawback is the ladndords tendancy to swap his Allgates ales ( I dislike his pale ones but the Stouts & Porters are brilliant )
for other breweries offerings some of which are second rate .
Ian more variety please !

Called in here yesterday. It turned out to be to my good fortune as they had one of my favourite stouts on pump; Chocolate and Vanilla Stout brewed by Titanic. It went down like it was milk, it was that tasty.

Medium sized corner pub at the (buses) entrance to the bus station. A Hydes house with some guest ales on. Tried the Pheonix Arizona which was nice enough. Has had a realtively recent refurb internally but has as been mentioned previously it's a fairly unremarkable place.

Unspectacular boozer in a town where lager and rugby league are the norm, although this pub does cater for most sports, judging by the different screens dotted around the place. I sampled two ales, one from the Liverpool Organic stable and another whose name escapes me. Both in good condition and keenly priced at the £2.30 mark.

As the previous member says, you're best off sitting towards the rear of the pub, where it is much quieter. The Anvil would be on my list for an occasional visit, i could never be a regular!
