| Splendid Holts pub close to the Eccles Metrolink terminus. This pub is supposedly the crown in the jewel of Holt's Edwardian drinking holes and is listed in CAMRA's National Inventory of Unspoilt Interiors, for its splendid mahogany glass fittings and etched glasswork. The building itself dates back to 1906 - note the date on the external brickwork high up. In true Northern pub style, there's a typical drinking lobby which lead to 4 rooms in total. These rooms are traditionally furnished and decorated with pictures of the area in times gone by, including the inevitable pictures of Ye Olde Eccles Cake Shoppe. To get here, take the Metrolink Tram from Piccadilly. The journey goes through Salford Quays, which is aspiring to be Manchesters equivalent of London's Docklands. Eccles is not short of Holt's pubs - try also the Stanley Arms, a mile or so further down the A57 towards Patricroft, a pub which I have unsuccessfully tried to get listed on BITE. My beer was certainly not sour ( see previous posting ) and both this pub and the Stanley Arms are highly recommended for fans of decent cheap beer in traditional welcoming surroundings.

| A lovely Edwardian pub, but beauty on the outside does not always transfer to the beer pumps inside. The pint of Holts bitter I had there was sour. In fact I suspect that it had lain below the bar for a while, because when I ordered it, I got it much quicker than I'd ever got a pint in a Holts before, very suspicious I'd say. Maybe it was because I'm not a regular and the barmaid tried it on, or the beer really is that sour. I haven't ever been back since. joolzy - 15 Apr 2008 22:11 |
| Fantastic pub and easy to get to, near the tram, bus and train stops in Eccles just 20-30 minutes from Manchester. Old Holts multi-roomed pub that has a nice look and feel to it. There’s the public bar, all bench seating, wobbly tables and betting slips on the bar. Then there are two comfortable and well decorated lounges and an incredible snooker room with spectator seating around the table. Full range of Holts draught and bottled beers. I recommend a visit Millay - 18 Feb 2008 21:47 |
