| My main reason for visiting Southport in October was to try Peaky Blinders, as it was an entry in the 2018 Good Beer Guide that I had not been to. I was left a little disappointed. It has the feel of a café bar and it had a fairly trendy crowd. Ales on were Timothy Taylor Landlord, Robinson's Double Hop & Cross Bay Sunset & Vesper. None were really to my liking and they have no real cider either. I did try the Corridor, Bar 45 and the Cocoa House also during my visit. All appear to be new bars that have sprung up in what has become known as Southport's Northern Quarter. There's certainly a decent selection along here now. But the best I can award Peaky Blinders is a 5/10. blue_scrumpy - 2 Feb 2018 20:25 |
| Bit of a strange one this. On entering you would file it as a typical “continental cafe-bar”, with large tables and comfy sofa seating. Then you find out that the “cafe” part doesn’t apply as they don’t serve coffee or food ! They call themselves “beermongers” and I’m happy to use that description . The frontage is all modern with large plate windows, but the toilets at the rear seem to belong to a much older building ! There were 5 handpumps serving 4 nationally-branded beers. When I was there, there was Old Speckled Hen, Greene King IPA, and 2 from Robinsons. I tried the Robinsons / Hartleys Cumbria Way. Unfortunately it was way too cold, and I spent the rest of my time trying to warm it up ! There is also a bottled beer “alcove” , but again this is pretty much run of the mill stiff. 6/10 – nice place shame about the beer quality ! Martinsh - 4 Oct 2016 23:11 |
| Not a traditional pub, has the feel of drinking ale in a coffee bar; bar staff were efficient and the place seemed popular & my pint of Martland Mill 'Spinner's Gold' was quite nice. alehippy - 28 Jun 2016 19:34 |
