Ye Cracke has had a refurb since my last visit some years ago, but it doesn't look much different to how I remember it, so they presumably haven't bashed the place about too much.

My visit was back in May on a Friday afternoon; five hand pulls at the main section of bar with four of those in service, and a further two hand pulls to the smaller end section of bar that you walk past on the way in. One had Higsons Bitter, which was a duplicate from the main section, and the other was unclipped. I went for the My Elusive Dream by Black Lodge.

I took a seat in the small War Office Room, apparently where the Boer War was discussed by locals between 1899-1902, if the signage is to be believed.

There is a small beer garden to the rear.

Well worth a vist.

Ye Cracke has a prominent Bass sign out the front, but they weren’t actually selling it during a recent midweek evening visit. The interior is bare boarded throughout and has avoided the interior design sledgehammer so lots of different rooms and partitioned seating areas remain. There’s a couple of bars, the one in the front right has five unused hand pumps so I decided to leave the lone old boy in there alone to use the main bar that was busy during my recent midweek evening visit. Three of the four hand pumps in here were in operation drawing Spitting Feathers Special, Wainwright Gold and Wensleydale Brewery’s Kiss From a Rose. I ended up sat with my pint under some art for sale in a room towards the rear. This is a friendly and popular pub that is worth a punt, just make sure you watch your yourself on the way out because the steps are steep.

A locals backstreet pub of some character and well described by Blue Scrumpy below. My visit was on a quiet mid - afternoon and found the landlady very welcoming, as were a couple of present locals, and chatty, yet you could sense she could also be quite formidable, she ran through my list of pubs I was/had visiting/visited in Liverpool and gave the thumbs up to most but described a couple as crap, or words to that effect, she's certainly a character. The beers on offer were not run of the mill and I had a decently kept Beartown Creme Bearlee and would have happily stopped longer if time permitted. Good Pub.
