The Cricketers, Ormskirk

Bland is definitely the word for the interior. A sparse, whitewashed bar/restaurant. A few ales on which were a selection of pales and goldens. Lots of the customers were in suits and by the time we left it was completely full of diners. There are other venues serving real ale in Ormskirk in much cosier surrounds so no real reason to return here.

A mix of drinking and dining pub, the right side more a dining area with booths and livery’d staff. To the left a bar with four pulls, Wainwright, Salopian and Mobberley Brewhouse, the fourth was blank. Blandish modern decor with grey woodwork. It’s GBG listed and the beer at least is quite good.
