With limited time in Standish and 2 Good Beer Guide bars to get to we had to have a quick one in each but enjoyed Salopian Fault Line here. Agree the high seating made it difficult for the more elderly of our group.

This long narrow micropub is well described below. Sadlly there is no low seating at all so my visit was limited to a quick pint. There was a TV behind the bar showing Countdown.
The six beers included Bowland Gold, Abbeydale Deception & a Dr Morton brew and Appleby Haweswater Blonde. All the beers seemed to be bitters at around 4.0% abv or less. I went for the Haweswater Blonde (£3.00) which was in good nick.
I thought this was a worthwhile place but some low seating and a more varied beer choice would suit me better.

A friendly and welcoming Micropub that is well worth a visit, the service was good and beer quality superb. Between here and the Hoot, I think this is less pretentious and more down to earth, the sort of place where you're allowed to bring along your canine pal. This long and narrow former pound shop consists of three areas. The front area had tall pine tables and stools and plenty of space between tables. The middle section housed the bar area, which had adequate standing space with shelving and some bar stools along the bar. The rear had separate loos and a small pebbled patio area. Walls were painted in a sage green colour and the floor was tiled throughout. Eight handpumps with six in operation on our visit. We went for the Southport Brewery British Gold and Ruck and Maul.
