The punters don't seem to like it if you're new and they don't mind letting you know that. Luckily my friends mum was working behind the bar at the time so we were spared any confrontation. Go here at your peril!

The Railway Tavern is fast becoming a 'cool' pub to visit in Motherwell. I went with my friends one…read moreweek night over the festive period and we had a great night! It was a Wednesday night but i assume they only had karaoke on then because it was Christmas. The bar is pretty old fashioned inside, with the bar in the middle of the pub and tables surrounding it. We ordered some vodkas which were reasonably priced (just slightly more expensive than The Brandon Works) and sambucas. Instead of the normal clear shot, the barman gave us Luxardo Sambuca cream, a kind of coffee tasting liqueur, which blew my socks off. Safe to say the rest of the evening is a tad blurry. The locals were really friendly, the karaoke host was lovely and had some great banter with us, we even got up to belt out a bit of the classic Kenny Rodger's The Gambler! The pub always has entertainment on, with bands playing and themed parties for special occasions. It also has quite a sizeable beer garden which is perfect for summer. I would suggest that they make a website for irregular punters like me to see what is on and when. Other than that, it seems like a great wee pub!

It's cheap, and it's the closest bar to the station. That's about it for memorable things about…read morehere. Staff are fine, if a little harassed at times, it's quite a busy wee place, even when I was in earlier on in the night. They have plenty of TVs to show whatever sport is on (Scottish football and horse racing when I was in) and there's a jukebox and karaoke advertised later on. It's not somewhere I would make a beeline for, but it's not somewhere that I would have any worries about nipping in for a quick pint to get out of the rain or wait on a train - I'd imagine that would sum up the bulk of their custom.

The Horseshoe Bar is a bit of a strange one…read more I wouldn't normally venture in but, during one particularly booze fuelled evening with my work buddies, we decided to go in here on a Motherwell Pub crawl, which turned out to be more of a two pub affair, but none the less, a great laugh. It is so small inside, shaped in a kind of half horseshoe formation, which is perhaps how it got its name. It hosts a Karaoke every Friday and Saturday, which was brilliant, with no shortage of singers! The bar staff were nice and friendly, even letting one of our more merry pals dance on her seat!
