Absolute rubbish. Two roomed from what I could see with a beer yard to the rear. The main room holds the servery and there is absolutely nothing worth having. Tetlys Bitter, Carlsberg rubbish and some pointless 'craft' fizz on. Dire.

This pub looks a total mess from the outside and desperately needs some TLC. As I was approaching I thought it was shut until a woman with a pushchair came out and lit a fag. Inside it's a little better looked after and is quite a reasonable looking pub. Nothing of particular interest in here decor wise and the clientele are very chavvy with a heated argument going on between two large women and a tattooed hulk. It looked like Mum, Dad and daughter to me. There's no real ale of course and my half of Carling was the most expensive of the day at a still reasonable £1.33. If I had to guess which pub will be next to close in Atherton this would be my odds on favourite.
