Sugar House

Sugar House Alley, Lancaster LA1 1NW

Westgate CC

Crosshill Park, Powderhouse La, Lancaster LA1 2TT

Jailor's Barrel

64 Market Street, Lancaster LA1 1HP

Converted from retail premises in 2007, retaining the facade with its huge curved windows. The interior was refurbished in 2016 in contemporary style with the bar now dominating the modestly-sized room. The reference to 1720 is a nod to the eponymous Robert, who started his furniture business nearby. A quiet upstairs room is also open to the public, except when reserved. Collection of bottled beer, some quite rare, strong and expensive! 50p off cask ales for everyone on Monday, when there is no CAMRA discount.

Lancaster Brewery

Lancaster Leisure Park, Lancaster LA1 3LA

The brewery visitor centre is in a capacious steel shed on a leisure park with shops, open to the public at the times above, available for functions at other times. Refectory-style tables and benches. Souvenirs for sale. Brewery tours 11am and 3pm. No food but you can bring your own.

Tipple

61 King Street, Lancaster LA1 1RE

Opened in a former shop in 2017. Describes itself as a cocktail bar, but it sells a wide range of other beverages. There are two draught beers, ShinDigger & Dortmunder Vier but no real ale. A number of craft beers in cans. It is a modern bar with a interior designed to reflect this. On the ground floor it is mostly stools, upstairs there are sofas and downstairs, comfortable booth seating.

Cornerhouse

34 New Street, Lancaster LA1 1HU

Modern conversion of one end of an old department store. Comprehensively re-fitted in 2018 in a modern interpretation of gin-palace style. Most of the space is restaurant, but there is a large bar offering the choice of communal drinking at a long marble-topped table or more discreet areas around the walls. There is also plenty of standing room. Cocktails a speciality with an amazing selection of spirits and mixers.

Herbarium Bar

Great John Street, Lancaster LA1 1NQ

Accidental Brewery

The Old Stables, Bulk Street, Lancaster LA1 1PU

Family-run micropub in the loft of an old stable block, above a computer repair shop. Contemporary decor with exposed rafters and stonework. A tiny brewing kit sits behind the bar, so far producing new-style keg but cask may follow. Only beer, gin, wine, soft drinks and a few bagged snacks served. Extensive public car parking nearby.

Kanteena

Brewery Lane, Lancaster LA1 1QL

The loading bay for the Old Brewery was built about 1980 and re-purposed in 2019. A bar in one corner, "street food" stalls opposite, and a large concrete-floored space in the middle. Some furniture, including old oil-drums and liberal quantities of reclaimed timber.

Cappuvino Bar

60 Church Street, Lancaster LA1 1LH
