Yes, especially Ye Olde Ferrie Inn, which is noted as having "seriously good food". When I was there - ok it was five years ago so maybe it's better now - the beer was "seriously bad".

Sad news. I see that *someone* has already marked the pub as closed, though the pub's operator is quoted in the piece as saying they'll be selling the remaining beer at silly prices on Friday, 12th...
"During the pandemic we decided to change the model to brew beer just to supply our own pubs rather than the micro-pubs we were selling to before. As a result the pubs became more profitable and the...
I think they're hoping I'll buy some of their beers myself, one day.
Wrong thread, surely. This is about Magic Rock being sold by Lion, a foreign investor now looking to concentrate on Australia, New Zealand and the USA, and being bought by Odyssey Inns, whose...
Thanks, .com now deleted.
Thanks, Ray. I've added the Facebook pages, and website and WhatPub when I could find them.
Thanks for those. Looks like someone has already updated the singular Needle, so I have also renamed the other one.
Thanks for that. I've updated the "pub type" field to show Craft Union, and also changed to the new Facebook account and the Craft Union web page for this pub. Please submit a new photo if you're...
Thanks for that. Looks like it changed quite a long time ago!
That's a good point. Time flows onwards, so we could do with making a decision on both location and date. Is it possible to set up two polls on one thread? Or if not, could someone with the know-how...
:)
Haven't been for about five years, but previous experience is not enough pubs for a crawl, and quality maybe a bit lacking. It could have improved without my knowledge, of course. :)
Another slow start to the month with just eight visits to new pubs in the first 23 days of July! Made up for this with a trip to Wharfedale and Airedale - 18 in five days - and finished off with five...
Yes, Burton works well and is relatively easy to get to, being placed almost midway between Tamworth on the west coast main line and Derby on the east.
I did a crawl there with the Beer & Pubs...
I think I mentioned somewhere in one of these threads that Lichfield and Tamworth would make a good double header. I've not been to Lichfield for quite a few years, and then we went because Luton...
I've mentioned a Stoke crawl I'm doing soon - looks likely to be Friday, 2nd September - on this thread on Beer & Pubs Forum. It doesn't aim to be comprehensive or "the best of the Five Towns", just...
Wasn't Steve Gann going to work out a route, or have I got that confused with something else?
Lincoln is like two towns, the hilly one and the flat one. I haven't looked into the buses, but when I was there earlier this year we got a bus out to this one, and the route took us past Lincoln...
This has been actioned. Sorry no one acknowledged the notification.
They were already suppressed. I have added the new website and Facebook page and deleted the old Twitter account.
Other beers in a very good week included Lancaster Red 4.8% (NBSS 4) at the Sun Hotel in Lancaster and Neepsend Boreas IPA 6.7% (NBSS 3.5) at the Wellington in Sheffield. The latter is normally...
Staying in Eskdale again just two weeks after my previous trip, I decided to go to the Manor Arms again, this time on my bike (an interesting route over Birker Fell) with the train back making the...
When I *was* working I was happy to take a day off to do a crawl on a Friday because of the plus points of less busy pubs, and to some extent less busy trains, too. So many trains on Saturdays are...
Yes, very good. I must try some of that cask beer one day.
