The Brownlow Arms, Comber (N.I) represents something increasingly rare — a genuine traditional local pub that hasn’t sacrificed its identity to follow trends. Warm, welcoming, and full of character, it offers the kind of authentic atmosphere many modern pubs have lost. It’s not trying to be fashionable; it’s trying to be a proper pub — and that’s exactly why it deserves recognition.
It’s also a true locals’ bar in the best sense of the phrase. The kind of place where people know who’ll be in, what seat they’ll be sitting in, and roughly what time they’ll arrive. That familiarity creates a sense of community you simply can’t fake. Regulars aren’t just customers — they’re part of the atmosphere and identity of the pub itself.
With its old-fashioned charm, cash-only simplicity, and stove bringing warmth to the centre of the room, the Brownlow offers something increasingly hard to find: authenticity. It hasn’t tried to reinvent itself into a trendy gastropub or polished chain-style venue. Instead, it has stayed loyal to what it has always been — a proper local pub where conversation, character, and community still come first.
The chandlers arms, Shearsby.

Fantastic food always get a warm welcome and all the staff are so friendly and efficient.
The Old Colonial is everything a great local pub should be and more. What makes it even more impressive is the story behind it. A 24 year old barmaid took over what was a struggling pub with no previous experience of running a business and, in just 12 months, has completely transformed it into a thriving community pub.
The passion and effort she has put into this place is obvious the moment you walk through the door. There is now fantastic weekend street food, live music, a welcoming atmosphere, and a genuine focus on real ale that deserves huge credit. It feels like a pub with real heart again.
We genuinely could not speak more highly of what she is doing. It takes courage for a young person to take on something as challenging as a failing pub, especially in the current climate, and the local pub community should absolutely be getting behind people like her. The turnaround has been incredible and the Old Colonial is quickly becoming one of the best community pubs around.

Definately the Help me Throu in Bury. This little gem has re opened with two guys as new landlords. The pub has had a total freshen up. And theyve put some freshness back into the place. I think its a party pub, theres music, singers, karoke, bingo, quizes, open mic nights. Plus dominos and darts competitions. There is something for everyone. Theyve a good selection of drinks behind the bar, pretty much something for everyone. They serve bar meals, which are FABULOUS. And their pies are home made and delicious. Staff are so warming and friendly and will do whatever to make sure youve had a good nite.
Its defo my go to place. They have put everything into this place. And thanks guys for making it what it is now.

Is the best pub by far!!! A proper working mans club, can go in for a pint after work and chat with friendly faces, the punters and bar staff alike. There is no keeping up with the jones’ unless theyre winning in the latest game, or the best at karaoke. The atmosphere is amazing and often led so eloquently by the fantastic nature of the staff.
The Woodman in Hanley, great atmosphere and lovely staff. Loads of events on during the week while still providing the drinks!

The Help Me Throu, Crostons road, Bury, Manchester.
Stephen and Tom have worked miracles on this little local pub, 12 months ago the locals were in fear of this closing down, then Stephen and Tom arrived and totally changed it, live music, quizzes, game shows, fabulous food, nearly every night something different. Staff are amazing and always helpful, friendly and fun. This place is now one of the most popular pubs in Bury in my opinion. If any pub deserves an award from what it was to what it is today then this is the pub.
Prince of Wales, Congleton. Craig and Lacey deserve so much credit for turning around a pub that had failed. True hosts in so many ways: to pub sports; to The British Legion; packed out music nights; giving new bands a first chance, and continuing the tradition of support for a great open mic night. Always polite and helpful they create a welcoming atmosphere – helped by their dog Jude – also acgreat character. Roaring fires, ready laughter, home cooking and the best Guinness in town. A home from home.
The Woodman pub

Definately the Help me Throu in Bury. This little gem has re opened with two guys as new landlords. The pub has had a total freshen up. And theyve put some freshness back into the place. I think its a party pub, theres music, singers, karoke, bingo, quizes, open mic nights. Plus dominos and darts competitions. There is something for everyone. Theyve a good selection of drinks behind the bar, pretty much something for everyone. They serve bar meals, which are FABULOUS. And their pies are home made and delicious. Staff are so warming and friendly and will do whatever to make sure youve had a good nite.
Its defo my go to place. They have put everything into this place. And thanks guys for making it what it is now.

There’s always something happening, live singers, karaoke, quiz nights, bingo, darts, dominoes, open mic nights and fantastic weekend entertainment. The atmosphere is brilliant whether you’re calling in for a quiet pint, food with family or a full night out with friends.
The food is absolutely superb too, especially the homemade pies and Sunday roasts. Staff go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and it genuinely feels like the heart of the local community again.
What also makes The Help Me Thro stand out is that they welcome campervan and motorhome stopovers, which is fantastic for visitors exploring Bury and the surrounding area. It’s perfectly placed for people wanting to visit places like Burrs Country Park, the East Lancashire Railway, Ramsbottom, Holcombe Hill and the famous Peel Tower. There are loads of beautiful walking routes nearby, local events throughout the year and great transport links into Manchester too.
Pubs like this are exactly what Britain needs more of…. independent, community driven, welcoming to everyone and run by people who genuinely care. The Help Me Thro isn’t just a pub anymore, it’s become a destination.

Bursley Ale House,
Burslem,
Stoke on Trent.
A friendly community pub, set within one of Burslems’ historic buildings that offers a warm welcome to regular faces & new customers alike.
A roaring log burner awaits those wanting a cosy beer of a winters night, and a large front Beer garden which acts as a sun trap for those that are sun worshippers in the Summertime, and has a long gazebo for those of us who want to keep cool.
Dogs & children friendly, they have a well stocked bar, with something for everyone.
A great selection of real ales are to be found, with two permanent beers and the other pumps have a varying & ever changing selection of guest beers.
The pub has an array of entertainment on, from a weekly Bingo session, a cheese & port night, pub quiz night , a prosecco deal night for the ladies & live singers who perform inside during the winter months, or outside in the beer garden throughout the summer.
They also sport a Ladies Dart team, and are currently seeking to welcome other pub sport teams to represent the Bursley in other local pub leagues.
Upstairs, there is a spacious function room, for parties, celebrations or community groups.
They have a range of bar snacks served daily, from jacket potatoes to toasties and more, which present outstanding value for money, apart from matchdays, when they have the BBQ fired up in the front beer garden.
They endeavour to give the customer what they want, and have a customer suggestion box at the end of the bar.
Open 7 days a week, well behaved customers are welcome of all ages.

Every member of staff at The Throstles including the owner, are absolutely superb. Easily the best pub around — I barely drink anywhere else now!
Such a friendly atmosphere every time you walk in, even if it’s just to pop in and say hello as you pass. Couldn’t recommend it more highly.
Throstles Nest, Congleton. This is a great little pub where the bar staff are friendly and always happy to see you. Along with having quiz nights and live music, it is dog friendly. The biggest plus for me is their range of cask ales, which they change frequently. Did I mention the prices are great too.
The Crown and Thistle, Kidsgrove- such a welcoming pub and john always makes us feel at home. All staff are a credit to him and he should be proud.

Amazing food and can control their live music ! Some pubs have a big problem with causing neighbours issues in Fareham especially land lords who can’t work with neighbours to resolve noise complaints fairly without going to social media ! but the Cob and pen are great at working with their neighbours , other Fareham pubs should take advice from the new ownership of the cob and pen.
