| A beautiful pub. The main bar is to the right as you enter, with a tiled corridor leading s around the back of this to two cosy rooms behind, both with fireplaces. There is a serving hatch in the corridor behind the main bar. Gas light fittings and service bells intact. The ugly extractor fan in the leaded window only slightly spoils the overall effect. Five handpumps. I tried the Robinson's Unicorn, Wem Golden Honey and Sharp's Cornish Coaster - I wasn't particularly impressed with any of them but the Coaster was probably the best. Tetleys and Jennings Cumberland were also available. The back rooms were empty when we arrived but rapidly filled up. A must-visit pub for anyone visiting Manchester. holbornboy - 15 Jun 2009 12:57 |
| almost the perfect pub. great bar staff, excellent beers, food (untasted by me) and a stunning selection of whiskies. the interior is intriguing and the atmosphere convivial. what would make it better? move it to where i live so i can go every night. porcus_volans - 4 Jun 2009 14:46 |

| Decent former Tetleys house. As mentioned previously, beer very expensive but my guest ale was nice. The 3 rooms are all fantastic and this is a proper traditional pub worth looking for. The pies sound delicious and next time I am in Manchester I will endevour to eat here. Sharp - 7 Mar 2009 13:02 |
| Over the last couple of years I've visited Manchester twice, after a space of 20 years. Each time I've stayed in the Jury's Inn which is, as luck would have it, right next door to this gem. Coming from London it seems such a shame that the capital has so few of this sort of old school, unadulterated pub left. Maybe that's the way Manchester is going too but it would be a tragedy if this place changed in any way. Great beer, fabulous surroundings and, in my limited experience, very friendly bar staff. And 300 whiskies ! Heaven... Pumpkinjuice - 25 Feb 2009 13:45 |
