Griffin |
John Smith’s |
G417 |
A rather nice large lounge, plus a plain bar side. On my visit the pub was totally isolated by major roadworks. An impressive array of lights, amps and speakers implied a noisy Saturday night’s entertainment. |
Earle Street / Sankey Street, Earlestown |
|
Hegh Arms |
Theakston, John Smith’s, üPedigree |
G414 |
A nicely decorated pub partially knocked through but with low walls and wide pillars to break up the space. The only hand pump provided a very nice pint of Pedigree. LSTV. Pool table. |

|
Pied Bull Hotel |
üTetley / 4X |
G414 |
A rather nice one roomed pub with side areas, plus a separate restaurant with a rather up market menu. The food smells good! The decor is fake wooden beams and the usual stupid quotations painted on the walls. B&B, function room. |

Tidy two-bar pub. Menu looks OK. |

Friendly pub with a nice interior with beautiful tiling. A peculiar layout in which the two room tastefully decorated lounge side is served from two “bay window” hatches at the back of the bar. Real fire. |
Bridge Street, Earlestown |
|
Sunbeam |
