A pleasant two roomed bar, a bit like an extended micropub, converted from an electrical store. The bar is in the front room and there's a larger room to the rear. There's a small seating area outside at the front. It was sunny, so we sat at the front. The only cask ale available was White Rat. The barmaid assured me that they usually have at least one other beer available as well. The White Rat was in decent nick though. There's a bakery next door where you can order food and eat it in or outside the pub.

This micropub is quite handy as it's close to Ainsdale Railway Station and has a bakery next door if you fancied a bite to eat. Plenty of seating out front with slightly limited space inside around the front bar area. I believe there is another seating area out the back, but l didn't notice this, as it wasn't clearly displayed. Three ales on handpump, Salopian Lemon Dream, Team Toxic United Nations of Chinook and Bier Head Liverpool Brewing. I went for the Team Toxic which was a well flavoured 5% beer.
