This is the Taproom of Ben's Brewery, which opened on 18th March 2022 less than 12 months after the family-run brewery first started. Located in Market Place in a former café premises it is a stone's throw away from other micros, the Bob Inn, Shed & Garden and Riley's Taproom and provides further diversity to Chorley's bustling pub scene. The interior has a rustic feel with recycled wooden pallets lining the walls. Six cask ales are served, generally from Ben's own range but with occasional guests also available. Draft beers are available in third of a pint glasses upwards. All Ben's brewery beers are vegan friendly. In addition, there is a range of craft ales (some of which are real), real ciders and a good selection of bottles and cans at good prices, which may be drunk on the premises or taken away. No general food is served, but you should find some pork pies in the fridge, and you are welcome to bring your own food. There is also a range of fabulous cakes, blondies & brownies available, provided by local bakery, the Squirrel Cake Shop from 9am each day (except Wednesdays and Sundays).
