A friendly and welcoming Grade II listed, stone-built community pub in an historic part of Bolton. It is one of the few remaining pubs on the famous old Halliwell Mile. The pub has recently been refurbished in a way which has sympathetically married a modern feel to its traditional features. The multi-room layout has been retained. The front room has a stone fireplace and a corner bar dispensing up to 4 well-kept and well-consumed real ales from local breweries such as Holts, Bank Top and occasionally others. The etched windows advertise the long lost local brewery J Sharman & Sons as well as the name the Stork Tavern. The two back rooms can provide a quieter atmosphere although, unusually, there is a dartboard in one and regularly entertain games during weekday evenings. Outside at the front is a small walled area with benches from where you can sit, sip and watch the world go by. At the back is a large beer garden and in winter you can make the most of the solid fuel stove.
