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

Reopened serving limited food menu and one real ale.
Glad to see that it is no longer cluttered with too much furniture.
Good luck to the new regime.

Doesn't seem to be popular this year. Not as many ales available as in the past and no live music. Don't know what has happened.

A choice of 3 ales on a recent Saturday night visit, all well kept.
I don't know why I haven't mentioned this before but please management GET RID of the barstools which make an already narrow pub virtually impassable. They are an utter pain in the arse!

Visited on Saturday night. Less than half full. A duo was playing covers of well known songs. Sharps 'Doombar', Brimstage 'Trappers Hat' and Purity 'UBU' were the ales. The Trappers Hat was well kept.

Last time I visited this pub it smelt like a pensioners flat. Sprouts

Unchanged since my visit last year. Well worth a look.

Went in here on Saturday night - first visit for a couple of years.
There were far less customers than I remember on past visits.
There didn't seem to be as big a choice of real ale either.
I saw Black Sheep Bitter and two ales from the local Brinstage Brewery - Trappers Hat and Sandpiper.
I tried the Sandpiper as I rarely see it in local pubs.
It was a light coloured, refreshing ale.

An old favourite of mine from years ago, I was pleased to see that the current owners have done a great job of creating a friendly atmosphere and maintaining a good selection of well kept beer. There was a 21st do on the evening that I went, but no-one seemed to mind a couple of gatecrashers and we were directed over to the buffet. Lovely view over the Dee on a summer's evening from the beer garden. If you are in the area be sure to visit.

a very nice little place, just off the beaten track though. a very good selection of real ales and a cosy atmosphere. not a great deal in he way of entertainment though - so if you want to try some speciality ales then this is the place, but if you want a good night out you may find this place a little sleepy!

A good pub in terms of real ale choice but falls short in terms of consistent quality. Had a pint of Brimstage Scarecrow recently which was average at best. Have been to this outlet on previous occasions and was ignored at the bar while regulars were allowed to queue-jump. I have been ignored at better places than this!

I went in here last Saturday afternoon. Only a handful of customers.
I had a pint of Copper Dragon 'Golden Pippin' and a pint of Brimstage 'Trapper's Hat'. Both of which were excellent.
There were 4 other handpull ales available.

Heswall's premier real ale pub.
On a hairpin bend. A small, old, black and white pub.
Not too busy but a good customer age range.
Often 6 real ales available plus another 2 keg bitters, also all the usual eurofizz.
A tv and a dart board. Occasional entertainment or karaoke.
Food available.
Small car park with a couple of benches at the edge.
I�ve always thought that the ales are kept a tad warm but CAMRA seem to like them.
Well worth a visit.
