We were told that the Stanley Arms on Liverpool Road and corner of Eliza Ann Street, Patricroft had been included in the 2024 CAMRA Good Beer Guide and I for one was delighted with this news.
The Stanley is a small typical street corner pub, Grade 2 Listed building with original Edwardian bar fittings, etched windows, a magnificent tiled passageway with Art Nouveau tiles and more importantly the beer... Joseph Holts... is marvellous.
The Landlady Sarah Kassim-Brookes certainly knows how to not only serve a good pint but run a pleasant, welcoming and traditional pub as the locals will testify.
If you have never visited the pub I urge you to call in, it's worth a visit to marvel at the pubs interior and enjoy a drink in the main room, or the vault...yes there are only the two rooms but an ample sized beer garden has been added at the rear of the pub.
We are losing our pubs at a rate of roughly 25 a week and Eccles and Patricroft has suffered losses over the years but we can't afford to lose anymore and certainly not this little gem of a pub, call in and see Sarah you'll get a warm welcome, guaranteed.
