  • Food tends to be the more "solid" of the two and is served on anything except a plate. Ale is generally wetter and served in a glass.   Hope this helps

    Wasn't it where the old Victory Conservative Club was?

  • Different ways to get a sore arse I suppose.

Me neither, just one of those pubs I never liked for some reason.

Nibblers

Me and Crawley used to be in a band when we were about 18. In Bolton we played at the Crown and Cushion loads of times, Hawthorns, Oscars, the Academy, the Bowling Green on Escrick Street and Barco on Halliwell Rd. None of them are open anymore. The moral of this story is - don't book me and Crawley if you're a publican! :-)

In fact come to think of it - you can add the Hacienda and the Roadhouse to that list! We were like the grim reapers of live music.

The Jolly Ploughman, just up the road from the Finishers.

 

Double points for this one as it was a Wilson's pub and that breŵery has gone now.

Cattle Market, mysteriously burnt down after the new owners were refused permission to knock it down as it had an an acient fireplace

greyhound , westhoughton, turning into yet another indian restaurant 

Bananas in Farnworth. Club rather than pub, now autopaint.

My better half and i used to go regularly to the Blundell Arms in Horwich for a drink over 30 years ago but not sure if it still there or not. It used to be a great pub with lots of nooks and crannies but probably turned into a Harvester now

I don't suppose many will remember The Black Swan in Harwood - roughly where Morrisons is now.

it's part of a chain but the food is a bit better than harvester.

I remember it, i was too young to have gone in it though

Nibblers

I probably remember 10% of the times I've been in there :D

Brierfields

Volunteer in Bromley Cross, i drank in there for years. I think it's a curry house now
