About Brown Cow Livesey
Brown Cow Livesey is a pub on Livesey Branch Rd in Blackburn. Blackburn Rovers fans stop in before matches on their way to Ewood Park, so it works as a starting point for a matchday. The bar pours small "baby Guinness" shots for anyone who wants one before heading to the ground. The pub is also fitted out with humorous decorations, which give visitors something to look at between rounds.

The complaints are separate: one says the bar is only open to those sitting outside and was dead, and another had children asked to leave a family event.

“Nicely decorated pub, some funny decorations. Went in for a family event unfortunately even though it had been previously agreed that it would be fine my kids had to go but I don’t think that this is the pubs fault as there were some other kids from a different family and they had to go as well. Decent prices for drinks and what not.”
