A bit more abstract, but the pub thinking is good.

Barbican? Specialist-ish kind of beer at the time, non-alcoholic, along with the venue.

Is it a currently opened station?

Not Barbican, but excellent thinking.

Berney Arms?

 

[444045]

Craven Arms ?

 

[plymothian]

Not a pub name, go back to the Barbican train of thought around a specific alcoholic drink.

We have a winner!

PERRYman, bit disappointed.

 

[duncanp]

You would have thought that the English flag would fly here, but this will never happen.

 

[perryman]

If it weren't for Covid19, this specialist establishment would be open.

We have a winner!

Way too obvious for a man of my simple intellect...

Is North Berwick too obvious?

 

[duncanp]

No, but the station I am thinking of is in Scotland, and that is why you will never see the English flag flown there.

Think of an alternative name for the English flag.

St. George's Cross (Glasgow Subway).

Crikey that didn’t take you long...well done!

 

[perryman]

Why are you in the know that I'm in Scotland, and that the fake ending isn't as messy as it could be?

Oops! It seems I can't delete my post. Apologies folks.

A small piece of help: the station is not in Scotland, and is a one-word answer.

 

[duncanp]

Amersham

Am = A'hm = I am when said with a Scottish accent

...Sham = Fake ending

No. But you are halfway there.

 

[ls2270]

Aylesham?

 

[perryman]

Aylesham?

No, you're still halfway there (and that's not a clue, just stating the fact).
