Roughest pub you've ever been in??

[sir roger]

Twas indeed the Star , it was very murky in there as you say , not murky enough to hide the fact the ale was pretty grim though.

 

It must have been well in with the police as it seemed to have people drinking in there at ridiculously early hours , sometimes when I was getting to work at 9 am.

The photos actually make it look better than I remember it.  First thing I'd do is throw out the sofa in the skittle alley.  It isn't clean.

 

edit: am now scouring the internet for a few shots of the football shirt collection from the Seven Stars.  Not a dodgy pub, just the football pub over the road from the Spoons (which itself used to be a genuinely dodgy pub).

Don't judge a book by it's cover,great local pub this,a bastion of a certain sport team who wear red.

To be fair, it looks like it’s had a paint job since I was last there in 2015. It’s always been a red house, but it’s also been a fucking dodgy yard. Still it’s holding its head up after the rose, huntsy, arncliffe and bottle have all gone tits up.

how is the Dales these days? Used to enjoy heading through the woods for a few pints there to watch the euro always in 2001-07.

The Sir Thomas Norris in Broadway looks friendly from the outside.

Great chippy next door to it.

[Harry Squatter]

Anyone ever been in this shit tip, the Barley Mow in Stockbridge Village?. One of my mates lived in the flats behind it and I dropped him off after footy once. We decided to go in for a pint and got some bad daggers. You could tell the rest of the crowd were desperate for us to leave. 

 

My mate was an Elvis tribute act and did a gig in there for Mick Quinn and a load of relatives of his. One put a big line of coke on top of his speaker and snorted it off while he was singing suspicious minds. 

 

It's been knocked down now and is replaced by houses.

 

Weird area. Literally fuck all there and only about 2 buses go there. Full of North Face ninjas.  It reminds me of the area in Training Day where Ethan Hawke arrests Denzel Washington.

It was actually named in several Asbo's under its previous name , as it was the regular haunt of the Norris Green portion of the Croxteth / Norris Green gang wars, and they were banned from using it.

 

Been in a couple of times after Liverpool games and no real issues.

Arctic Ranger, Orchard Park, Hull , first question at the pub quiz "what you fuckin lookin at?"

[Dr Arthur De Sabre]

we've introduced me out laws to early doors over the last few weeks, one of the few things to make us home sick, a proper low end smoky boozer with character is fucking boss.

Remember bevvying in the thatch during the day probably mid 2000's when there had been a few shooting type incident in the area, me and the missus were using the launderette over the road, so slipped in for a few pints was a good mix of auld fuckers and ching fiends.

then went looking for me grandad, he used to bevy in the welly, walked in the back room and they had a bluey on the projectors, all the curtains drawn, just what yer looking for like on a tuesday afternoon, thankfully me grandad wasnt in there.

My mate lived in the flats at the back of them for a bit and we went in once. It was fucking rough but anybody who has ever been around there will know that the locals are mutants. Stocky Village is basically made up of dealers, lids on scrambler bikes and smack heads.

 

Those flats you mentioned are fucking horrendous.

That meant to be in Edinburgh?

 

I don't recognise it, looks more like a function suite than a boozer.

That's in Penicuik, about 8 miles south of Edinburgh. One of my best mates is from there, I'm going to send him the video now, the sheep shagging bastard.

 

I saw it on Twitter last night & just assumed it was in England somewhere.

I hope the good Doctor is sitting down , somebody has done the Penny Farthing up , renamed it ‘The Courtyard ‘ and they have two bouncers in a Monday night.

That fella was posted about on here and in the Echo a few weeks ago. Think his name was Jaffa.
