Would echo comments from JohnBonser. One of the best pubs in M/cr.

A glorious pub; check out the ceilings. Inside it's honest, simple and how a good pub should be. An excellent range of well kept beers. Well worth making a detour to.

Well known pub in Manchester's Northern Quarter which re-opened relatively recently following extensive renovation after a period of closure of some 20 years as a result of fire.

I never visited the pub in its pre-renovation days, but I'm told it was one of Manchester's finest drinking emporiums.

With its high moulded ceilings and church-like arches, there is still much to admire internally.

The pub consists of 3 interconnected rooms.

On the beer front, the pub is clearly a keen supporter of local micros - Dunham Massey Light Ale being my randomly chosen pint on my recent visit.

A blackboard lists future beers coming shortly - these included York Brewery, Ossett, Coach House, Greenfield and Allgates when I visited.

Crown and Kettle Ale is brewed for the pub by Greenfield.

The pub serves home cooked food and Sunday roasts. Live sport is shown, but not obtrusively.

You should include this pub in any Northern Quarter crawl - along with the nearby Hare and Hounds on Shudehill and the Marble Arch on Rochdale Road

Ceiling in the front bar still in a bad way, but the rest of the pub looks good and the beer choice (4 real ales, most from Greater Manchester) was good, as were the beers themselves. Has a few TV screens and was showing the football on my visit (the dire Sunderland-Liverpool match) and was pleasantly busy throughout. Good luck to the owners.
