The Alehouse

Didn't get a picture, I may get one on a return visit to Clitheroe.
This place opened in 2015 and is not a traditional pub but is converted from a double shop premises. I'm all for new bars being opened since so many traditional pubs have closed down (and are still closing down) but the premises have to be suitable. This place is too narrow and cramped to make a good pub. What redeems it is that it serves nothing but cask ales.
decor - 1
very few pictures or ornaments, wooden interior upstairs and down.
ambience - 2
Lively but both the upstairs and downstairs rooms are narrow and cramped, making it difficult to move around safely between the bar and your seat, and avoid being walked into by male customers who have already imbibed a bit. The small space means there are few seats anyway.
Service - 1
slow
Real ales - 5
Five taps on the downstairs bar that serve nothing but cask ales
features - 2
Does gift cards to give to family and friends
TV in downstairs bar
toilets - 3
Disabled access is almost non existent. Narrow entrance. The toilets are up a steep flight of stairs and there are none on the ground floor.
Score 14 out of 30
