About This Pub

You know, when I popped into Shickers Micro Pub, it really hit the spot with its friendly buzz and that homely feel – it's like stepping into a mate's front room, but with a great pint in hand. The staff are absolute stars, always chatting away and making sure you're looked after, which makes it ideal for a pre-match stop or just winding down after a day out. They've nailed the beer selection, with ales that are spot on, and if you're feeling a bit peckish, those hot pies are a proper delight. It's open most days from around midday till late, so it's flexible for a quick visit. On the flip side, the real ale isn't for every taste, and that tiny toilet might raise a chuckle or two, but honestly, it's those little quirks that add character. Overall, with such high praise from those who've been, it's a solid choice if you're after a genuine, no-fuss pub experience in Blackpool – I'd say give it a go and see for yourself!

Nice little micro brewery. Not our taste in real ale on this occasion but enjoyed the change of venue.

Visited yesterday before the match and despite being the only away fans in we were made to feel very welcome. Fantastic ales all in excellent condition. Good selection of hot pies, pasties and sausage rolls the steak pie was lovely. Screens showing the live match and despite it being very busy it was a good atmosphere and the service was quick. It was so good we returned for a couple after the match. Will definitely visit next time we are in Blackpool. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

My new favourite pub, shame I was only in town for one night. One half Blackpool FC fanatic's man cave, one half micropub. Three decent screens. Friendly and knowledgeable barman. Great beers. World's tiniest toilet. A must visit.
