The Britannia Inn in Farnworth

Ah, The Britannia Inn – it's one of those classic pubs in Bolton that you can't help but appreciate for its straightforward charm. From the reviews I've seen, it's clear folks love the friendly staff who go out of their way to make you feel at home, especially during buzzing events like karaoke or when the footy's playing on the screens. The beer garden is a real treat on a sunny day, and with a fresh refurb under its belt, everything feels clean and well-kept, plus the drinks are affordably priced so you can enjoy a few without worrying about the wallet. On the downside, it's a bit of a mixed bag with service; one person mentioned the staff being a bit down on a bank holiday, which could spoil the mood if you're after that warm, chatty pub experience. All in all, it's a solid choice for a relaxed pint and some nostalgia, but it might not be the place to go if you're expecting non-stop excitement – still, I'd say it's worth popping in for the good bits.
