There's more to Crewe than trains
When most people think of Crewe, they think only of its railways connections. During the 19th century Crewe was home to one of the world's greatest railway workshops and was a leading innovator in engineering and design, building elegant locomotives that brought prosperity and prestige to the town.
Today, there’s a lot more to Crewe than trains! There’s a thriving live music scene, as well as a range of shops, bars, pubs and restaurants encompassing a variety of cuisines.
Within walking distance of the train station you will find a variety of restaurants offering a range of cuisines from around the world including Italian at Gio's, Indian at Passage to India, Thai at Thai Corner and good old burgers at Local Burger.
If you are thirsty and fancy a pint, not far from the station you can find Hops Belgian Cafe Bar offering a range of bottled beers, draft Belgian ales, ciders, continental lagers and cask ales. Along Nantwich Road, within walking distance of the railway station you will find Ebenezer's who also carry exciting craft and modern beers, artisan gins and quality wines and spirits.
The recently redeveloped Market Hall offers a distinctive setting for a range of food, goods and entertainment including pizzas, burgers, noodles, Cypriot food, an American Diner and more! Here you will also find The Crewe Dog, providing unique and interesting products, sporting over 20 lines of draught beers and over 200 bottles/cans. Plus there is a quiz night every Thursday and live music some weekends.
Visitors to Crewe can see history brought to life at Crewe Heritage Centre, by discovering the story of how a small farming community was transformed into the railway capital of the world. Take a stroll in the beautiful Victorian Queens Park, or catch a show at the award-winning Edwardian Lyceum theatre, some of the UK's top comedians will be there in the coming months including Harry Hill, Chris McCausland, Iain Stirling and Joel Commett.
If you fancy a game of golf, Wychwood Park Hotel has its own European PGA TOUR standard course with 7213 yards of Championship tees and Queens Park has a very popular 9 hole course measuring 4925 yards, which over the years has matured into a very challenging test of golf for all handicaps. If you are into football, the famous Crewe Alexandra Football Club plays from their stadium on Gresty Road and are aptly nicknamed the Railwaymen.
Stay overnight at Wychwood Park, a contemporary hotel and golf club set in beautiful countryside and surrounded by landscaped grounds. It's located very close to Crewe town centre with easy access to junction 16 of the M6, the ideal place for any business or leisure break.
