Old Boots left this review about The Beer Den
A former shop conversion in a side road a little out of the throbbing heart of Southport, it’s a two room small pub, micro if you like. The main room is to the left and contains the counter, seating is at knackered chairs at mostly round tables. On the counter, five solo keg taps with Guinness, a Weston Cider, more interestingly Spaten, Salt Apocalyse and Rosa Blanca which I’ve not seen before. Four hand pumps but three in use, none from Parkers Brewery which was part of the reason to visit as this is their tap. Beers from Yorkshire Heart, Hop Union and Full Circle all tried were in decent condition. The main room is decorated with eclectic photos and pictures, mirrors and a billiards score board. There are a gents urinal only and a non gendered toilet at the back.

Simple shop conversion to a micropub, with typically limited opening hours. I tried to visit here just over a month ago, but returned on foot once again this week. Opening times are displayed on the door and online. It just didn't fit in with my itinerary last time.
Unusually and until our arrival, all customers were women. Even our server was female. The interior is bright and airy. Dogs are welcome. Toilets were clean. Being a sunny day, we chose to take a seat outside on pavement tables to the front.
The two Parker brewery beers were Viking Blonde & Commando Session. Guests were Kirkby Lonsdale Stanley's & Lister's Bitter. With no dark beers and no cider, a little variation wouldn't go amiss. Otherwise, a decent place that is a little off the beaten track.

As noted it's by the lawnmower museum and sort of halfway between Birkdale and Southport stations. I found it very friendly and the beers from Parker Brewery were acceptable. The smallish bar is a bit thin but there are a few benches outside. Worth the walk from either station? I'd say yes.
