lively old traditional boozer besides the station platform. it was exceptionally friendly early on a Friday evening though the football chants and raucous pensioners at the bar may intimidate some. has a selection of real ales including the rather unfashionable Tetleys cask! this is easily your best pub in the village with the others all having the exact opposite atmosphere to this place.

Roger Button left this review about The Railway Hotel
As the name suggests, the Railway Hotel is next to the station and is probably the liveliest of the pubs in Parbold. There is a lot of railway memorabilia and some fine original fireplaces and tiling. The main bar can get quite full but there are 2 quieter rooms either side of the main door. There is a pool table at the back of the main bar plus TV's for sport. Not a large selection of beers but worth a visit if in the area.
