Steve C left this review about The Railway Inn
The Railway Inn in one of two pubs that sit either side of the bridge that travels over Congleton Railway Station. The interior is U-shaped with a central L-shaped bar counter that supports two hand pumps, one of which was unused leaving Wainwright as the lone cask ale option. Premium keg was also available alongside Carling. Flagstones and bare boards run throughout with the odd bit of carpet thrown in. There’s a pool table in the corner and rolling news was on the television. Six Nations rugby is heavily advertised so I expect there’s no satellite sports shown here. Handy for the station, but comes in a solid third when compared to its peers around the station.

An easy walk from the south bound platform out the gate by the steps and follow your nose. On the other hand hold that nose when drinking the beer. It’s a dining pub where cask beer is an afterthought so don’t go here for a drink, you can but you’ll regret it. Multi space eating venue, pool table in one bit, it has three pulls on each counter face, undrinkable Ossett Blonde, Doombar and Wainwright on each face. Awful.

The Railway Inn as the name suggests is close to the train station,this is a decent looking pub, the main drinking area is near the main entrance and to the left is the dining area.
There was only one real ale on here which was Bombadier this was ok but nothing special.
