Why not enjoy a drink and a bite to eat al fresco at one of these top 12 beer gardens? At the beginning of June, we wanted to find Warrington’s Best Beer Garden and we shortlisted the top 12 destinations in the town. The Ferry Tavern was a worthy winner taking the title for the third year running – a hat-trick of awards! When the sun is shining on a hot summer’s day, not much beats a cold, refreshing drink in a beer garden. A drink or two al fresco with family and friends is the perfect way to enjoy the warm weather.
