A hidden oasis of tranquillity just off the Prom. Great news as this pub is reopening 13th April, 2019 under new ownership after a major refit both inside and out along with a brand new name.
An independently owned, real-ale haunt at the back of the Golden Mile (behind Madame Tussaud’s), police station and court house. It was an old coppers drinking den (being so close), hence the name.
With a changing brews available, Belgian beers, malt whiskies and the occasional live band (believe it or not called ‘The Great Tune Robbery’) it’s not exactly a quaint old traditional pub, or a party venue either – but you will find a great pint decent pool table and ‘budget’ bar meals, one of those venues you end up staying longer then you expected.
Compared to other Blackpool Heritage Building’s it’s not that old but it is probably one of the oldest buildings in the area because during a big fire in the late 1980s, the Pump and Truncheon was just about the only building not to burn down. It still has its unique charm with a wood panelled interior, open fire, and historic setting.
This Pub serves 3 changing beers and 0 regular beers.
No. 13 Bonny Street, Blackpool
