Nestled in the heart of Manchester, this vibrant pub offers a mixed experience for visitors. While some revel in the welcoming atmosphere and outstanding selection of beers, complemented by delicious homemade meals, others find it crowded and noisy. The establishment is known for its friendly bartenders, who enhance the experience with engaging conversations and personalized service. Occasionally, patrons have reported a less-than-enthusiastic bar staff, which can dampen the vibe. Regular events, like comedy nights, bring in lively crowds, making it a popular spot. Overall, this pub captures the authentic spirit of Manchester with its charm and character.

Having been in the pub before and enjoyed the experience, I was extremely disappointed this time. The guy behind the bar looked far from happy and we left after one drink

100% recommend for the staff alone. Bar staff were exceedingly friendly and imparted a load of local knowledge to me, a first time solo visitor to Manchester. The second day I visited, I was in a bad situation and the owner helped me out tremendously (without me asking). I can't possibly thank her enough. Will defo be back next time I visit.

It's in a great location and has a great atmosphere! There is a bar on the ground floor and a smaller one up on the first floor. You can book the top room for events etc. Last time I visited. There was a dog. Nice.
