Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Platform Ale House

Well-known alehouse situated in the main former station building, featuring a reasonable number of tables in and around the bar, supplemented by more seating in a small side room and a few flimsy patio chairs put out in the forecourt. Limited decor, mostly pictures of trains as you would expect. Five of six handpumps in use when I visited, dispensing Bitter and Area 51 from from Rowton, Purity Mad Goose, Single Speed Fox from Fixed Wheel (£3.20) and Enville Old Porter. A Freedom Four lager is also offered for those so inclined.

Soup Dragon left this review about Platform Ale House

Visited a few times since it opened. Housed in the old station buildings, walls sporting some railway memorabilia, the place can feel a little cluttered with tables and chairs - especially when a band takes over one corner as with last night. The service is always great and there are usually 5 ales on with a cider: Enville Ale and Ginger, Green Duck Porter, Rowton Area 51 and Bitter. The Ginger and Porter were excellent. They do snacks and the pork pie was decent too. Music came from the band, who were fine but the place being small it was a little loud. Make sure you go out the front for the patio area, especially if you have had a few! More than worth a visit.

Old Boots left this review about Platform Ale House

Friendly platform side pub basic but excellent, dog friendly with canine snacks, on the ball landlady. Restrained amount of railway porn and a good local following. Basement toilets and of course handy for the train.
