Brainy Pool left this review about Founder's Hall
Now rebranded as Founders Hall and serving as a Lees showcase. Bar/restaurant with a smart modern interior, all themed around the brewery. Their full range of 7 cask on, and you can get a flight of three if you want. In fact, one gent did this before me which took the barman ages to put together. I tried the cask Black Rose milk stout which was gorgeous, like a dessert in beer form. It’s a decent place if a touch too modern for me and beware the prices, we’re a long way from Middleton here.

Steve C left this review about Duttons
Duttons is a long modern JW Lees bar that stretches across the front floor to ceiling windows that look out onto covered seating and arches that support the office block above. The central bar counter on the rear wall supports premium keg alongside Carling and the two identical banks of three hand pumps were drawing JW Lees Bitter, with the MPA being off and one pump being unused. High banquettes that wrap around high tables are found along the centre of the pub opposite the counter and seating runs along the front windows. To the right is a raised seating area and more seating is found to the left. There was background music playing and the televisions were showing muted rolling news during my recent midweek evening visit. Food is available, the burgers start at around £14. The service was polite, but I like a pub with a bit more character so probably won’t return.

Not a bad place at all. Could do with a better selection of beer but what do you expect from a Lees pub. Must say the Moonraker dark was on form.
