He then suggested a "similar" beer that I'd already had on several occasions that was not even remotely close to the AmberAle that I was looking to drink. Seriously? He flatly was a jerk. Must be new protocol in Manchester pubs. Experienced it repeatedly. Was more interested in the chat with his mates then providing any service whatsoever. Don't waste your time unless you enjoy a surly uninterested bartender and crap service.

Its very spacious and has a multitude of TV screens showing sky sports. They also hold a pub quiz in the week. There is a good selection of beers and other drinks although all the real ales were off on out last visit. It is the kind of place where you feel safer drinking from a bottle rather than a glass if you catch my drift. The staff are friendly and the service is quick, even when the bar is rammed. I haven't eaten here - Sunday roasts were advertised for £3.49, this does not inspire me to try the food!! This doesn't sound like a very positive review but for a quick pre-match pint, it ticks the A-Ok box for me!

Situated just across the road from Mersey square and tucked in behind one of the main railway arches, it's a hidden gem that is perfect for starting the night before heading up to the Magnet and Hope on the A6. Lots of quaint little rooms with plenty of seating for large groups, the atmosphere is relaxed and unthreatening with a classic decor throughout. I didn't make it in to it but my friends I was meeting were in the beer garden out back beforehand which is a nice additional touch. The beers are all from decent UK and fairly local breweries with around 12 on tap and a couple of ciders. Prices are super low and the beer is excellent - what's not to like!
