Preston (Friargate), Lancashire. This pub dates back to 1774 and was originally The Old Dog and Partridge. It has long been known as "Preston's No. 1 Rock Bar". True to its name there were eight dogs (but no partridge!) relaxing in the pub (including six shiatzus - Charlie, Jesse, Luna, Coco, Alfie and Dexter.) A pub with a really nice relaxed feel. The lady behind the bar and the patrons were so cool and welcoming to me. I ended up back in the beer garden (with a couple and their pitbull) enjoying a Wainwright Gold, which is brewed in the beautiful Lake District (a highly recommended destination!). It was inspired by Lakeland fell-walker Alfred Wainwright.
