There’s a nice etched window at the end of the serving counter of the Crown Hotel, but all the others are clear allowing passers-by to peer in to see middle aged men all sat separately in silence, well this was the case during a recent midweek evening visit. The extremely slow background music didn’t help with the ambience. Banquettes run under the front windows and part way up the left and right panelled walls. On the right-hand wall is an attractive tiled fireplace that is hidden behind a high table, more high tables are found in the centre of the pub around an ornate supporting column. An L-shaped serving counter supports premium and craft keg alongside seven hand pumps that were drawing Titanic’s Plum Porter, Oakham’s Citra, Wainwright, Liane Brewery’s Doublon, Dark Star’s Hophead, Doom Bar and TT Landlord. The Porter was on good form but the barman poured a comically short measure before disappearing off somewhere. I had to ask his colleague to top it up once he’d seen me above his screen… you’re at work, put your fecking phone down! There’s a dining room at the rear with the same wooden flooring, wood panelling and impressive ceiling. Worth a look, but don’t expect the service to be attentive.

Handy for Lime Street Station, a quite attractive and ornate pub but once inside the feel, as Ian aptly describes below, is one of a transient nature and the pub atmosphere is lacking. Seven handpumps on the bar of nationally available beers probably mirroring its general custom, Black Sheep Bitter, Doom Bar, Tribute, Landlord, Dark Star Red Dwarf and Hophead leaving one stick vacant, worth the tick but one I'm not likely to return to.

Noticed this externally handsome pub from the exit/entry to Lime Street but never previously visited.
Initial thoughts were off a transient pub, with most punters popping in for one before moving on. Very busy with constant movement in a barn of a knocked together room.
I managed to get a table - amazed at how much booze punters leave behind. A minesweepers dream. It didnt take long for the staff to clear off the empties and make my place more pleasant.
The high rating includes my pint of Fyne Jarl - which after four Good Beer Guide Ticks and one other pub, was my Pint of the Day. Perfect condition.
