Quinno _ left this review about The Cracking Pint / Crafty Pint
Red and pine GBG micro with a little extra room out back. Three cask and a cider, a nice range. Went for the Wily Fox Rum Porter (NBSS 4). Friendly landlord ran out of halves though to be fair he had to contend with a coach load of us over a couple of hours alongside the usual Saturday crowd. Difficult to pick between the two close micros, I’d recommend a pint in both. I did raise the query regarding what its actual name was these days but I forget the answer; either way, the internet says both so I have amended it here.

Another micro; another shop conversion, a square room with L shaped counter in the right
hand corner. Three pulls with local brews, one more had a fez on top. It’s got seating around the outside edges at traditional tables & chairs with a couple of taller ones. There’s a snug at the back near the toilets. Friendly locals and staff. By the way the sign says Crafty Pint, the GBG says Cracking Pint so I guess this is a recent change back to its old name.

A really good micropub in a former shop unit and run by an ale enthusiast.No machines,flatscreens nor muzak but there was a musty smell inside .There are traditional tables arranged around the bar which was in the right corner and up a step is a small rear seating area .
Three ales offered on my trip that meant Lancaster Mosaic,Salopian Shropshire Gold and Golden Thread on NBSS 4.5 form.It rattled past the three pint test.
On not to miss out on if in Staly.
