Welcome

If you love the British pub, you will like this blog. Here I will review the pubs I drop into in my wanderings around my home region - urban, rural, posh, homely, fun pubs, restaurant pubs, and local backstreet pubs. I hope to encourage people to appreciate them.
I will score each pub out of five points each (30 points maximum) on its ambience, decor, service, whether it serves real ales, state of the toilets (but I can't vouch for the state of the gents because I don't use them!) and what extras it has - games, beer garden, newspapers, serves food, karaoke, quizzes, live music.
If after reading one of my reviews you decide to check out a pub, I hope you enjoy the experience. But bear in mind that I have only visited some of them once, and pubs and pub managers change. If the review needs updating, please leave a comment.
Ups and downs? Well, people drink when they're down. And they drink to celebrate, when they're feeling 'up'. Besides that, this is hill country. It's full of ups and downs.

The Crossings, Furness Vale, High Peak

 




The Crossings
Station Road
Furness Vale
High Peak SK23 7QS
TEL: 01663 308726

I assume it's called The Crossings because it's on the same road as a level crossing over the railway (with Furness Vale station right next to the level crossing) and also a bridge that crosses the Peak Forest canal. It has a big open plan room with a side room with a pool table.

Decor - 5
Walls in shades of blue with blue-and-white checked covers on padded seats.

Ambience -  3

Service - 3
Bit slow, otherwise not bad.

They started doing food in  March 2023 according to their facebook, but I'm not sure if they've kept it up (visited May 2023). You can phone to ask.

Toilets - 3

Score 19 out of 30
