Cholmondeley Arms, Frodsham

Fairly small Marston's pub situated opposite the access road to Frodsham station. The landlord was on the phone with what appeared to be a personal call when we arrived. He continued his conversation without even acknowledging our presence. Jennings Cumberland was the solitary real ale. Although as we were leaving, a second ale was being poured through which appeared to be Hobgoblin Ruby or Gold. The pub itself is a reasonably cosy affair and was quite busy on a Saturday afternoon. Many were clearly getting ready for a long Saturday evening of drinking. A football scores programme was showing on the TV in the corner. Another fairly unremarkable place that should be bypassed in favour of the Helter Skelter.

Called in for a beer after the Frodsham beer festival, sadly they didn't have any as it's keg only, so I ended up with a pint of Guinness. Good looking pub on the outside with half timbered frontage. A somewhat faded carpet on the floor covering an uneven flagged floor I guess. OK for a quick beer, but the Helter Skelter is just up the road, so I won't be visiting again.
