This feels like a student union bar especially with the vending machine and rather basic furnishings. Surprisingly a few ales from Wigan Brewhouse in good nick alongside three ciders. Jukebox playing a rather odd selection of music. Plastic glasses on a Saturday night, probably due to the gig in the back. Worth an occasional look for something different on Wallgate.

The Boulevard is a live music basement bar that opens daily at 21:00 until the early hours of the morning. The venue is split into a good sized front bar area and a rear area for the regular live music. I didn’t venture into the rear area because, other than some background music, there was nothing going on during my recent midweek visit. At the rear of the bar is a black clothed pool table and a dartboard. The bar supports five hand pumps that were drawing three Lilley’s ciders and Robinson’s Trooper. It was too dark to read the fifth pump clip, but I did count eight fonts for the premium keg. The service was polite to me, but some guys who came in with football shirts after the Man U game were told to leave. I’m not a massive fan of live music so this place isn’t for me, but I can see the attraction.

This GBG listed bar was quiet on my Thursday evening visit. The TV screens were on but with the sound turned down.
The bar has six hand pumps which included a cider and I also noted Animal Brewing Co (XT) Swish, Dukeries Baronet, Copper Dragon Golden Pippin and Empire Kismet. I went for the Swish (£3.00) which was in good nick. I quite liked this place but probably wouldn't with the TV screens in full effect or live music.
