Bridge 61, Market Harborough

Bridge 61 Visited evening of 18th September 2011 A gem of an old fashioned styled proper pub a cosy antidote to Foxton Lochs inn, and it must surely have the smallest bar in England. It truly is a canal side pub with tatty old sticky tables and pub bar stools and chairs. But lots of original canal ware, memorabilia, tools and lots to read in local books and magazines. There was quite a crowd of locals in the public bar, and then there is a sort of conservatory around what I assume is the chimney to an old furnace. Had a proper bar shelf with coat hooks underneath, church pews and white washed walls. Well lit garden outside with good view of the canal junction. Offers light snacks and 3 Real Ales on hand pumps locally brewed ‘Bridge 61’, ‘Inclined’ named after the incline carrying the old canal boats and Adnams Bitter. Only on criticism the bar man only drank lager so didn’t know how the beers tasted!
