I have been in this fine pub many times and although I don't drink beer myself, my partner has enjoyed sampling the many varieties & watching all manner of sport on the several screens. The food is splendid and I particularly recommend the 'best bloody pies in Manchester' as they are advertised! And they certainly are! I would say this pub is cosy and quirky with friendly management, customers and staff and one that you could easily spend a few hours chilling in. Also recommend the comedy nights on first Saturdays of the month,which are a night out in itself and are even free! A highly rated pub!

Basil and myself regularly visit this splendid pub; whilst I am tucking into my gin and food, Basil is checking out the many traditional ales (and probably the bar staff too, the scamp!) and is highly complimentary.

When matches are on, it is a little busy for A Lady such as myself, so I go to lunch at Napoleons whilst Basil does his male bonding thing.

Beautiful tiled exterior but the interior appears reconstructed:-somewhat reminiscent of 1980's theme pubs except I don't know what the theme is here with sripped back brick walls and strange curtain partitions!!. A ramshackle mass of stools and tables and 'orrible leatherette settee add to the confusion. BUT I am being very picky. The bar area is nice enough and I like the bare wood floorboards throughout. Good range of real ales and I particularly enjoyed "lass" which is presumably brewed on the premises.Steak and ale pie reasonably priced, served in a respectable time and saved my life after a long day of touring around.In spite of my reservations about the interior, this is a good real ale pub with a character of its own, and I think it would be best enjoyed for a session with a couple of mates. I think it appeals to a wide age range :no doubt popular with the students and real ale drinking UMIST alumni of a "certain age" (like me, isn't it!!).

Hi - Lass O'Gowrie here!

I'm presuming you visited on Bank Holiday Monday, when we took advantage of one of the quietest days of the year (with no offices, University or football) to undertake a deep clean of the kitchen and get some vital maintenance in at the same time - something we clearly can't do at the same time as cook unless we invite the fairies in after midnight....

Ale-wise we were running lower than we would have liked (four were on that day, as opposed to our usual nine) which was purely down to our usual delivery being delayed by 4 days due to the Easter Bank Holidays.

Please feel free to give us a whirl again in the future! Best - the Lass...

What's happened to the Lass? is it going down hill. As a regular visitor have raved about this place for years but on last few visits, poor range of handpulls (2 max) and food not available (kitchen maintenance, hmm convenient excuse for no staff?)
