| What a great selection of real ales - and ciders too. Outdoor drinking area. Nautical bits and bobs on the walls. Original etched glass in the windows.

The Albert |
| Banks's pub. Over the years the choice of real ales has been reduced - now with three beers served by hand-pull. Both the Bitter and the Original were well kept and tasty and at a good temperature. New owners in 2005, so a friendly welcome is assured. Planned changes include retiring the jukebox and updating the bar area. And eventually pub food will make a return. Pool table. Lounge room as well. Handy for both the train and bus stations. Situated on Smithfield Road. Tel - 01743 358198. Visited Feb 2008 |
| Banks's Bitter
Banks's Original Jennings Cocker Hoop |
Albion Vaults |
| Burtonwood pub. Old pub opposite the railway station on Castle Foregate. Collection of electricity and railways maps of south eastern England. Food served. Accommodation. Draught beer was off in Oct 2003, have to try again. Tel - 01743 354906. |

The Anchor |
| Until the flood defence scheme was built this was an often flooded pub near the Welsh Bridge on Frankwell Quay it used to have the flood levels marked by the door. Low ceilings and a refreshing pint of Black Sheep, together with the omnipresent Tetley Bitter. Food is served at lunchtimes and there is an outside drinking area at the back. Nautical bits and bobs. Tel - 01743 355266. Visited Oct 2005 |
