Another really nice pub which you receive a very warm welcome from the staff. We called in for a quick drink and rest before heading back to the shops for somemore retail therapy. Would definately recommend to anyone..!!

Two of us visited the pub last week for football and were made to feel most welcome! Drinks were reasonable and staff were excellent! Will be back next time we come to Blackpool!
