The Borough Arms, Crewe

Fine selection of well kept beers and well worth a visit - it's just a shame that the amience is more your nan's living room than pub - such is life!

The Crown, Crewe

This pub is something of an Oasis in the centre of Crewe.

A classic Robinsons town centre "boozer" that has not been spoiled by it's refit (probably 5 years ago) as many of the original fittings were reused as part of a very thoughtful and sympathetic change which suits pretty much anyone except possibly teen drinkers - it's rare to see anyone under about 25 in the bar.

Robbies seems to be a bit difficult to keep with little middle ground between a perfect pint and something quite awful, but I've never tasted a pint that wasn't at least acceptable here - and often it's very good indeed.

It's just a shame there's no food - a "light" menu, say bowls of chips or a sandwich selection would be very nice at lunchtime.

Compared to the other pubs in the town centre this has to be first port of call.
