Rob Hunter left this review about Southport Coaster
Two hand pulls but only one in service at the time of my visit in July, offering Wainwright Amber. Decided not to stay. Seems a bit of a dodgy old man's dive.

Brainy Pool left this review about The Potting Shed
Now called the Southport Coaster and very much a Wetherspoons wannabe (“Mountain Pub Company” apparently). comfortable interior but a bit dreary and gloomy and with zombie like clientele inside, the outside seating was far more appealing on a warm afternoon. it had a Wainwrights pump but I’m pretty sure it was unavailable, I wouldn’t have risked it in here anyway.

ROB Camra left this review about The Potting Shed
This is now one of the Potting shed chain and it also shares the amenities with its sister bar Firepit above. Internal signs say the this is all one place with 2 floors, so there's no need to add Firepit as a separate entry. It's very spacious and nicely done, but there was no atmosphere on a Sunday afternoon despite there being a folk band on. This place is aimed a specific type of person and demographic and I don't think we qualified on either count. My pint was pretty expensive and just OK as was Ms CAMRA's red wine. Won't be calling in here next time we're in Southport.
