BUY ME A PINT

On arriving in Blackpool North heading down to the front to board a tram from North Pier up to Cleveleys. Headed to the Shipwreck Brewhouse (a couple of minutes walk from the tram stop)

Great selection of beers both cask and keg. I went with Prospect, a Wigan based brewery. Sat in the back room although theres outside seating at the front and back aswell.

Onward from here up to Blackpool Football Club where we had a Sparkling Afternoon Tea booked.

Blackpool FC – Afternoon Tea

Lovely setting for a sparkling afternoon tea overlooking the football ground with the Tower in the background (apart from the Seagulls)

Shickers Micropub

A revisit here, not far from Blackpool South station. Theyve taken over the unit next door since last time, so have a nice bigger area inside. 2 cask ales on this afternoon – I went for Sherpa by Crankshaft Brewery in Leyland.

JD Drinkwaters

Last call of the day – JD Drinkwaters Ale House, which had only opened in 2021 so id not managed to do on previous visits. 4 cask ales on here with a couple being from Wales (Mumbles brewery isnt a very common sight up North)
