The Grand Central, Manchester

Definitely not a dart board or food served (not that I noticed anyway). Definitely got busier since Jilly's closed, good atmosphere, alright jukebox (got all your traditional rock n metal on there... wouldn't mind it updated a bit though) really welcoming - there were all sorts of folk in there. Good prices, good reputation and the staff were nice when I needed directions. This place also has live music on Thursday nights apparently, only been to it once but it was busy & FREE ENTRY?! It's supporting the local scene & really community feeling in there. Reasonable prices and good choice of beer. Loved it.

The Salisbury, Manchester

Good selection of drinks especially ales but always feel uneasy when you go in there, like you've turned up uninvited to a birthday party for past-it bikers with an attitude problem and a masculinity complex.

The Gullivers, Manchester

Checked out this place because I heard it was doing some alt suff in the Manchester scene. Complete waste of time. Horrible atmosphere due to rude bar staff, not enough variety of drinks & not good prices for students, �3 carlsberg? Would rather go to the Salisbury & drink better beers for less money... so I did.
