This pub was closed on our November visit. Apparently it was closed for the whole month whilst the railway was not operating. Will have to come back one day. For now, it's the minimum score. blue_scrumpy - 4 Feb 2018 17:32 |
Called in for a pint last Sunday after a pleasant trip on the Foxfield Railway. I cannot remember how many hand pumps they had on my last visit two years ago, but on Sunday there were eight, although two were not clipped. Of those that were, one was Crumpton Gold cider and another Titanic Plum Porter. The others seemed to be proper ale from various micros. I opted for a pint of Cross Bay (Morecambe) Halo (3.6% abv) which I have no complaints about at all. I would have certainly had a second pint if I hadn't have been driving ... steve2905 - 20 Sep 2014 03:36 |
I have visited twice recently and was impressed on both occasions. I could not fault the beer, the welcome, the atmosphere or the service by very efficient and knowledgeable young lady behind the bar. It is certainly well worth a visit but my only reservation is that it is room is very tiny and it can easily become VERY crowded. That said it seems to be popular with the local CAMRA members. If it was just a bit bigger I would give it 10/10, so sorry guys and girls it has to be a 9/10. steve2905 - 22 Sep 2012 06:08 |
Station bar at the Caverswall Road Station of the Foxfield Railway. Small bar, but always a warm welcome and a range of excellently-kept real ales from small, independent brewers. Cracking pub - well worth a visit, as is the railway and the rolling Staffordshire countryside. 10/10. wobblybob - 9 Sep 2012 18:37 |
