Ye Olde Kings Arms, Congleton

Old Marston's pub on the station side of the town centre (and about the only one in that area open at lunchtime early in the week). Partly opened-out, with several supporting columns to catch out the unwary, so the original layout must have been crampt. Pedigree (£3.00), Wainwright and Courage Directors available from the various handpumps.

Marston's has taken back control

This is a Project William pub run by Titanic brewery. It's quite clearly very old and is a listed building. Inside there are beams and a mix of tiled, wooden floored and carpeted areas. The main bar area at the front is an L shaped room and you can see another room across the bar to the right. There is a bar billiard table to the far right of this room and there are two snugs at the back. Unusually for one of their pubs there were no guest ales just five Titanic and the obligatory Everard's Tiger. I went for the Captain Smith (£3.50) and Plum Porter (£3.40) both of which were excellent. This isn't the best Titanic pub I've been to but there's nothing wrong with it and it's a friendly place well worth visiting. It's GBG 2017 listed.
