The Fishermen’s Rest gets its name from the infamous Mexico disaster of 1886. The event is still commemorated every 10th December by crews from the local Southport Lifeboat station. The pub was originally part of the Palace Hotel and was renamed after the bodies of the brave sailors and lifeboat crews were laid out in the building. Home to two teams in the Southport & Formby quiz league. The pub is also close to the Sefton Coastal footpath.We serve fresh home cooked food and booking is recomended.
