The Railway Hotel, Parbold

The Railway is a lovely; good; old fashioned 'local'... in the very best sense of the term. Not many of them left; sadly! Good beer kept in an excellent, clean cellar. The staff are wonderfully warm and helpful (with one notable exception, but happy to forgive him and buy him a razor for Christmas!). Clientelle are largely locals or visiting workers. Lovely atmosphere and very welcoming. Facilities (eg Sports TV; pool tables etc) are great. Happy 'atmosphere' enhanced by very welcoming staff and typical, friendly customers. And dogs welcome!
Only recently moved to the village; but have no hesitation in recommending the pub and would like to wish the retiring licencee (Anne Brew!) all the best for the future. If visiting Parbold; then don't miss the Railway....
a 'proper' pub!
