My partner and I went here prior to a gig at Band on the Wall (about 10 minutes walk). I can see that it's a traditional pub that's been 'elevated' to sub-gastro status, which has obviously priced out previous regulars. That's a shame but it's also business - if the beer was rubbish, I'd understand the annoyance, but it is Marble Beer and it's reliably tasty and worth every penny. Believe me when I say that pubs in London serve piss for £4 a pint - you've got a range of great boozers in Manchester, don't knock em! The Marble 57 Thomas St and Castle being a case in point.

Visited the other day. Superb pub (been visiting for 25 years) but the prices are ridiculous now. Beer quality was excellent as was the food but even this is now 'masterchef' stuff ie small portions at ridiculous prices. Would seem its turned into a 'bankers/city workers' establishment who can afford these prices.
Can we have our old Marble Arch back please ?............

I totally agree about the prices.I live in London but visit Manchester 4-5 times per year.The last time about 3 months ago I had a pint of Wheat Stout and it was £4.25!!!!

I queried this with the barman as I thought it should have been £3.25 ,but
£ 4.25 was correct.

Living in London I am used to high prices but Manchester pubs in general are catching up quickly.

Still it's a fantastic pub and I'll be there again in 2 weeks.

Sadly my comments on 15/04/2011 were premature, prices have once again rocketed. The pub has its own brewery and is not in the city centre, therefore the prices cannot be justified.

Beer quality sound, interior wonderful, yet this nouveau riche desire to attract the "monied" flat dwellers nearby is quite disgusting. A rethink is needed.

Totally agree with arihall on this one. Owing to the prices I haven't frequented this place for a good 12 months now. It's such a shame because it is a diamond that should be available for everyone (not just the rich and well off). As regards the Angel I must admit that I'm not a fan. Smithfields on the other hand is a solid boozer.
