| A bit of a shock, after the quiet of the Crown & Cushion, to find this pub rammed around 4.30 on a Saturday afternoon, but it doesn’t take long to see why. The interior hits you as soon as you enter – the beautiful glazed tiling on all the walls and ceiling and the attractive mosaic floor, which unusually follows the line of the sloping road. On the walls just below the ceiling the brickwork is engraved all around the pub with the words “Brandies, Whiskies, Gins” etc. There are ten pumps selling a range of beers from the pub's own brewery, including Mild, Pint, Bitter (imaginative names there!) and Dobber. There were at least two guest ales, including Thornbridge Jaipur. I had a pint of Mild, which was good and two pints of Dobber which was strong but delicious. My friend and I had a steak sandwich and chips, which was nice, but expensive for the amount of food were given (£7.50). Easily the best of the pubs visited on this trip and I would imagine a strong contender for the best pub in Manchester. holbornboy - 16 Jun 2009 15:09 |
| Fantstic pub and home to the Marble Arch Brewery. Ornately decorated narrow bar area, a small restaurant area next tot he brewing area and kitchen and a small beer garden out the back. We visited on a Sunday lunchtime of a bank holiday weekend. They had seven of their own brews on (Mild, Chocolate Marble, Bitter, JP Best, Lagonda IPA, Stout and Pint), four guest ales (George Wright - Drunken Duck, Thronbridge - Kipling and Ashford, Brampton Golden Bud) and a real cider (Moonshine Cider). Our group worked its way through several of them and everything we tried was in fine form. We also ate and the food was superb too (presumably all home-cooked). A fabulous roast with Yorkshire pudding and fresh veg. Food wasn't cheap but there were certainly no complaints about value for money from our table. Service was also very good. A little way out of the city centre and about a 30 minute walk from the City of Manchester Stadium but a very good place for a pre-match meal and pint! Rod_Hariga - 25 May 2009 10:59 |
| Absolutely outstanding beer, decor and food. Its current rating of 7.6 by no means does it justice. It is probably the best real ale pub in Manchester, and not in the way that Carlsberg is 'probably the best lager in the world'. With an appetising menu of both food, ale and a wide selection of international lagers this pub is a Mecca for real ale aficiondo's. The fact that it is always busy is a testament to this. wray89 - 13 May 2009 01:56 |
| Finally managed to visit this place after threatening to for a while, fantastic pub with it's own micro brewery, enjoyed very nice pint of the home brewed JP Best, superb tiled interior a joy to behold! Pretty busy which is to be expected when there's a great pub pretty much out on it's own. ToxtethOGrady - 10 May 2009 17:28 |
| You jammy beggars, those who are lucky enough to have this place as a local. A visit yesterday had us on the Manchester bitter, excellent as usual plus JP Best which quite honestly, was out of this world. I barely have the words to describe how good it was. One slightly sour note was that the folk next to us groused about their nosh in both portion size and that the meat was not cooked as to the request. It looked bloody good to me though.. Roll on another visit soon. MartynT - 5 May 2009 09:30 |
