user reviews of Lakeside Inn, Southport

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Very tidy little place, more like a smart cafe but with good London Pride/Tetleys seasonal, cheap rolls and friendly staff. Would be a lovely place to sit outside outside in good weather (April 15th).

Good little place beer well kept. Nice garden that over looks the lake.

Visited with 2 friends on a quiet Wednesday lunchtime. London Pride in excellent condition. The place is certainly not 'run down' as described by an earlier visitor. Indeed it is very clean and tidy and spotless too. We will visit there again next time we go to Southport.

Strange place on the main front road that is definitely worth a visit at least once. As noted, it's tiny, pretty ramshackle and run down from the outside, and looks like anything but a pub. but has a cosy, traditional atmosphere within, despite being a little run down. No matter to me- the place is full of character and was pleasantly bustling on a Saturday afternoon. Not a strong emphasis on real ale- as noted only London Pride available (which is something of an anomaly in these parts), so I wondered whether I was wise to order it but I'm pleased to report that my pint was in great condition. Females in our party weren't too keen however- it's rather 'ungentrified', shall we say- and preferred to stay on the back terrace (about twice as big as the pub!) , from whence the views over the Marine Lake are excellent. Not one for the massive real ale fan, but to me worth a visit for the experience. Just 100yds or so from the Windmill. Try it, you might like it.

Certified by "The Guinness Book Of Records" as the "smallest pub in Britain" (22ft x 16ft). Outside it looks like a boat hut with no windows & quite frankly a little uninviting. To the left is a small, stepped beer garden. Inside the mirrored walls make this place seem a lot bigger than it is. Unspoilt & full of character the carpet is a very loud paisley red & the tables polished gold. The bar arcs across one corner & there is a large corner window opposite which looks out onto a beer terrace overlooking the marine lake - very relaxing. There is a nautical theme with fishing artifacts as well as plenty of photographs & pictures of Southport in years gone by. The Fuller's London Pride was excellent. I would certainly recommend a visit.
