Sir Robert Peel, Stoke-on-Trent

UPDATE 2020.

A refurbishment has recently been carried out which requires a re-assessment.

Please note - the photos are therefore out of date and the description is one written before the recent changes.

Small traditional back-street pub. As you enter the pub there is a door in front of you that was the former off sales. On the left is the public bar with a bare wood floor and Victorian bar counter with moulded top. The spectacular bar back is one of the oldest in the area and may date back to the 1870s with four candy-twist columns and panels saying Fine Ales and Spirits (formerly glass, now painted). The fixed seating looks to date from at least 1960. Some half-panelling. It has been knocked through to the rear games room with bare wood floor. Note the excellent 'Parkers Bitter Beer' window screens - very rare. The lounge on the right was originally two small rooms and has a brick bar, modern fixed seating but has lost it fireplace.
