| Always a reliable port of call on the Manchester Northern quarter round. Decent prices, and a good range of beers. arihall - 11 Jul 2011 18:20 |
| First visit to The Smithfield even though I have passed it many times before (usually shut). Anyway, good beer range with some new and interesting breweries to try. As has been said it is a bit dark and dingy and the pool table tends to dominate, but it was friendly enough and worth another visit . mcroyal - 15 Mar 2011 14:14 |
| Bit scruffy but couldn't fault the beer and the prices. JBGatelad - 13 Mar 2011 12:56 |
| A lot of people were recommending this pub to us. But whilst the other 3 we visited in the area were excellent, I thought this was the worst of the 4. The ale range was good - Robinsons Dark Hatters & Old Tom, Greenfield Dobcross Bitter & Hopped & Stoned, Fuzzy Duck Tangerine Duck, Durham Apollo & Facers Smithfield Bitter. Chocolate & ginger versions of Old Tom could be found in bottles. I found the interior a little dingy with little natural light filtering through the front windows. However the welcome was friendly and so were the other customers. Whilst I would certainly come back and it is above average, it didn't inspire me as much as some of the other local pubs. blue_scrumpy - 14 Feb 2011 21:31 |
| Some may find The Smithfield slightly intimidating - it has largely resisted the process of gentrification which has consumed the 'Northern Quarter'. I imagine plenty of people would see that as good thing and it continues to serve an excellent and extensive selection of ales at great prices. pub_patron - 12 Nov 2010 10:33 |
