The Peveril has a very local, non-touristy clientele, the quintessential Isle of Man pub. Looking out over Peel harbour, the Peveril is arguably best visited just before sunset - in the extensive summer outside in the beer garden. It has the usual pub games and indoor seating areas and two bar rooms. The games room is to the right, on entrance from the harbour side, with the main bar to the left. This includes a substantial fireplace towards the end of the room with wood burning stove for winter months. Comfortable backed wooden bench seating is positioned around the walls,complementing the wooden panelled bar. Few and far between now, there remains a stone flagged floor in this bar.There is a second bar serving the pool room, the two bars being interconnected. Large TV screens for the sport are situated in both bars. Though there is no dining, toasties are available. The pub dates as a building from around 1730, a number marked on the fireplace, but the building only became a pub around 1802. Numerous groups use the pub, including the local RNLI and Peel football club.

Crown St entrance leads directly into the Public Bar, which has a solid bar back (1930s?) now painted red and white and with simple wood shelving. Outward sloping slatted wood bar counter front (the top is a replacement) and brass footrail. Panelled ceiling and similarly styled bench seating. Modern flagstones and large modern fireplace and surround. Across the corridor is a further bar with slatted wood panelling but with more modern fittings.
