If you like madchester you'll like it, if you like anything else you probably won't.
Used to love this bar back in 2000/01 but certainly not to my liking now.

Nice place. Busy but not as heaving as some of the others. Nothing special drinks-wise but a nice comfy bar with a good weekend atmosphere.

Squares / Wall Street, Preston
Very popular with the younger crowd. Not bad to drop into on a crawl but best avoided fri/sat evenings.
On the 'sophisticated' debate I can only comment that if you find stripey jumpers and check shirts sophisticated then you won't find anywhere more sophisticated than here on a fri/sat night!

Resembles a school canteen which will be familiar surroundings for most of the people in there at weekends.

Brilliant bar. Huge variety of bottled european beers & always a good selection on draught normally including a kriek (fruity beer), a weissbier (wheat beer) and a quality european lager such as Budweiser Budvar.
Also possibly the cosiest, friendliest place in Preston. Any place that has such a good choice of beers is always worth a visit.
If only other places were run so well.
I've never seen these supposed slutty dancers there either (been about 100 times) - if you want slutty dancers go to a chav bar that sells Stella & you'll see plenty of them on the dancefloor. Yates's and Squares being the nearest.

I love going to this place when footy is on tv. Always got 2 different game son for champs league and you get to watch a live saturday game on the screen with Sky Sports news on the other screen.
Also great beer, a friendly welcome and a good pool table that's reasonably priced. Fantastic place for an afternoon pint or two

You can tell they take good care of their ales in here. Really good old-fashioned pub. Won't be popular with people who are into flashy chain bars but that's part of the appeal. A real bloke pub

Gotta say I don't like the place. I've been a few times but tend to find it very unwelcoming.
Bog-standard beers in a bog-standard pub really.

Good beers, decent food, sports on screen, pool table. If the inside was to be done & made a bit nicer up it'd be spot on.
