Has reverted back to the King's Arms, sprawls over about 27 floors or something, I had one pint, at the kind of price which might have Man City's owners quizzically saying, "Er, just a half then, please..."

OK, if you like that kind of thing and enjoy paying for it.

Now re-opened under a different name. Actually it's back to it's original name (The King's Arms) so hopefully it will stick with that now.
Very large bar on several levels. Thacher's Gold on draft. On a recent Tuesday visit they had some type of open mic night, although unfortunately nobody seemed to be laughing at the "comedian" that was on.

Large, smart and clean though somewhat lacking in atmosphere when we visited late afternoon time. I can imagine it filling up and getting more lively in the evenings, though. Very reasonable food.

Has changed its name AGAIN!!! It is the Black Bear now. Quite an interesting building and a decent enough bar.

I really liked this place when it was Babushka but since it changed its name to Stark it seems to have acquired a funny smell. The food's pretty good though, and they have a decent range of lagers and a patio area. Tends to get rammed on Friday and Saturday nights, but is good for the occasional breakfast or sunny afternoon drink.
