Brewers Fayre The Brocklebank, Crewe

Purpose-built Brewers Fayre pub / restaurant with all the charm of the contemporary Premier Inn that sits beside it. The multi-space interior has the expected anonymous, semi-modern furniture and decor, but there is also a covered front patio area where you can watch the traffic go by if you are so inclined. However, on the plus side, it does at least do some real ale, with Kennington Cumberland (£3.40) and Pedigree available from two of three handpumps (and a reversed Doom Bar clip also noted).

Fairly standard beefeater style pub attatched to a Premier Inn sandwiched between the railway and an industrial estate , a short walk from the station. Usual open plan with lots of little seperate areas on different levels interior that is common in this style of pub . Service was quick and friendly with both the barstaff very chatty . Usual kegs with two handpulls , sadly no ale on so i had to settle for a Becks . Handy for a pre-match pint when visiting Crewe Alexs football ground if you have kids with you .
