In the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest pub in Britain, according to a certificate on the wall, but this place has much more space than the Nutshell in Bury St. Edmunds.

Southport Tavern (Albert Hotel)
|
The Albert was a large grubby one bar pub with a rear dining area called the Albert Pantry, busy on a Sunday afternoon when I visited in 1998. Returning in 2006 I was surprised to find real ale available.
Moving on to 2022, the Southport Tavern is a well cared for clean and tidy boozer.

Sporting Jester (Volunteer)
|
Outside, a rather impressive building which looks like it dates from the 1920s I guess. Inside it has been knocked through to make one large open bar area, plainly decorated but well looked after. On a wet Wednesday lunchtime in 2011 it was ticking over nicely with a number of regulars sitting at the bar. I got a slight feeling of the music stopping and everyone looking round as I went in, but they soon got back to their chit-chat while I settled down to a fine pint of Thwaites' Wainwright.
Returning in 2018 I found it had been renamed and the interior very well refurbished.

A nicely done out partly knocked through one bar pub plus a function room upstairs. Named after William D Sutton "The Old Duke", who in 1798 opened The South Port Hotel next to the dunes, thereby starting the development of the town and giving it its illogical name.
Returned to its original name of the Shakespeare in 2007, closed in the mid 2010s and then was demolished.
