One of the best real-ale pubs in Manchester. Also, if you get the chance, try it out during their Belgian beer festival, where they'll have up to 40 Belgian beers on draft. Well worth a try!

Great new pub. Unrivalled choice of beer for miles. Only downside is the slight 'new' feel of the place, although that may be to other's tastes!
|
This gaff pulls off the really difficult task of appealing to a diverse crowd whilst simultaneously making everyone feel at home. Locals, CAMRA tickers, students, business types all rub shoulders here enjoying the well-kept beers. Friendly staff, good jukebox, it's difficult to fault the Oxford.
|
Great range - and a varying one - of well-kept ales. Unusual range of Belgian beers on tap and bottled. Manages to combine being a friendly local with a sense of sophisticated city pub. Accordingly, a wide spectrum of customer types and ages. Pity no food in evenings.
|
I can only echo other writers here -its a real success story since it opened a couple of years ago. Its won several awards and its not hard to see why! Well worth combining this one with the Crescent up the road.
|
What a great place. Another recommendation that came up trumps. Great choice of well kept beer served by an extremely knowledgable and friendly landlady. Managed to get there more than once during our holiday, and will call again any time I am in the area.

An outstanding pub which gets it just about right on every level. Superb choice of beers, great food, pleasant decor anf friendly staff. After only my second visit, I feel like a time honoured regular customer. If only the pubs in my home town (Horwich) came up to this standard I would be very happy.
|
Excellent pub. Always got a big selection of well kept real ales on. Nice, clean pub with friendly staff and regulars. Well worth the short walk from Manchester city centre.
|
This was my first visit to this pub and I can only say that it exceeded my already high expectations. Superb choice of beer, highly efficient and courteous bar staff. Friendly locals made for a very pleasant experience which I look forward to repeating.
|
This Pub Has Just been Named Manchester CAMRA pub of the year!
|
Cracking pub! A friendly welcome and a great choice of hand pumped ales, plus draft imported beers and a good bottled selection. Well worth a visit.
|
Fantasic Pub... Friendly staff very welcoming great atmostshere and good crack. Selection of Ales is brilliant specially if its your first time trying them. Would definately recommend for a night out..
|
allthough local to the area i was to feel unwelcome it seems to be yet another case of local people being pushed out to allow for passing trade and trends i would not recommend this pub to anyone who actually lies in salford
|
Excellent beer house, more in the N/4 than the Salford style. Quieter than the Crescent though.
|
Very friendly pub. 10 hand pulled cask ales all in superb condition. World beer menu. Nice food. Watch out for this pub as it's becoming a real cracker.
|
Modernised pub but thankfully retaining some original features. Work is still ongoing but it is becoming an established favourite on the real ale circuit to rival the nearby Crescent and King’s Arms. At the time of my visit, their winter ale festival sported ten beers including some that the National Winter Ales Festival not far away hadn’t thought of and in excellent nick. Clearly recommended.
|
They had their first beer festival this weekend (25/11/06) and they were shocked and pleased with the turnout, the beer was in excellent condition (as always) and there was a decent range of foreign beers too. Always a pleasure to go in as it's not a stuck up bar and you are treated like friends popping in for a pint.
