| Oh, and I forgot to mention the heavenly house brew Bettys Best at a bargainous £2.15 a pint! mikebassett - 29 Apr 2009 12:50 |
| What a lovely pub! Nice staff, intriguing decor, fabulous range of ale and the pies! Truly the best in Manchester... mikebassett - 29 Apr 2009 12:49 |
| Called in again on Saturday, much better range of beers on this time with 7 of the handpumps in use. Had Allgates Jabba The Hop and Howard Town Wren's Nest. Both were good. Keep it going guys! ROBCamra - 30 Mar 2009 14:20 |
| Lass O'Gowrie here. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your visit, however (assuming you visited Friday) in answering some of your queries; * furniture - the furniture was thinned out solely to accommodate our monthly comedy night which is held in the evening. Normally, we provide a selection of tables to go with the benches... * Space invader tables - some like themyou obviously don't. I speak as someone who has seen people queue up to play them mind. What they remain though is furniture which can take a pint or a meal. Perhaps the Snug or vault would be more for you as they have none in situ * Guest ales - it's an unfortunate fact that occasionally, due to overlaps in deliveries and the time taken to settle there can be a delay in getting guest ales (3 pumps worth on). I would point out though that we are, at least completely transparent in our pricing policy. The remaining ales are tied to our brewery so, as a consequence have to be much pricier. Honestly, you'd weep if you saw what we have to pay for them... * location - I'm glad you mention this. Being city centre we pay a premium on everything, including rates and rent so we have to be more expensive as a result. We're also the same price as the Peveril, the BP, Odd, Trof, Sand Bar which are all on our doorstep * food was extortionate - well, I'd invite people to have a look and make their mind up (http://www.thelass.co.uk/pub_food.php), bearing in mind it's all homemade, our pies are ranked amongst the best in the city by the Manchester Evening News and we've not raised prices on the majority of items for over 12 months. Oh and our specials are generally less than a fiver. I think we certainly compare well with the bland expensive guff at Wetherspoons * keyboards on the wall - well, horses for courses. Some like em, you don't. I woudl point out though that if you look a little closer they are in fact part of an art exhibition by Donna of www.arcade-art.com which I think are rather nice. But that's art for you... Kind regards The Lass x Lassogowrie - 7 Mar 2009 15:47 |
| I was very unimpressed with this pub. Its a mess inside, too much clutter and it doesn't really know what it wants to be. They seem to be desperate to appeal to the students and these space invader tables and keyboards on the walls look ridiculous. Seating is very poor with the majority of it being stools and benches with no tables. When I visited there were no guest ales on (advertised as being a reasonable £2.40) so I had to settle for a £2.85 pint of Olde Trip, which to its credit was in reasonable condition but isn't something I would buy out of choice. Also on were Black Sheep and Greene King IPA both also at £2.85 which is too expensive, especially given the pubs location. The food was extortinate too, but I didn't partake. Not worth going out of your way for. Sharp - 7 Mar 2009 12:54 |
