No. 1: The Bridgewater Arms

Visited on 3/2/11. And so it began. This is a quiet Victorian boozer tucked away in a side street near the station. The ale on offer was Thirstquencher from Waverton's Spitting Feathers micro-brewery - so top marks for stocking local beer. It's not great though, I'd have to say. Well it's ok I suppose. The place was full of old men and we had to endure Matt Monro on the jukebox followed by ACDC. Service was good. All in all, an unpretentious no nonsense proper pub. Good start.
