I drove past the Oddfellows a few months ago and as I live over 50 miles away in Southport, did a bit of research and then went for lunch today. When I mentioned to the lady who looked like the licencee, the people on an...adjacent table said, we are off to Southport for a birthday party and mentioned micro pubs I am very familiar with. Small world. What a magnificent locals pub, not that big on the ground floor, but a lovely bar and a few log burners, making it like your best friend. If I lived nearby, I would be in there every day. The lunchtime food was toasted sandwiches for both of us with a side of chips. My Croque Monsieur toastie was very good, but as a lover of mustard, could not taste any. I am not a lover of salad, but it was very nice in the dressing. My friend had Ribeye Steak and Cheese, the steak was great, but sadly the toast on the inside of the sandwich had been incinerated into a dark black. Why the chef sent this out is beyond me, it was not great. As we were on a schedule we decided not to return it. Lovely pub, the licencee and the later young lady server were great. Will we return again, yes, it is well worth a second chance.More
