Reopened 15/3/2025 as Salmon of Knowledge. This is the sister outlet to the original venue in Manchester city centre - Salmon of Knowledge, Manchester
A plain single-room house laid out starkly with bare brick walls, non-upholstered bench seating and dining tables. The bench seating and tables are closest to the bar which is on the right as you enter, and there are some dining tables and a few comfy chairs scattered about near the window to watch the world and the many buses go by. As it became the Dockyard in May 2021, gone are the signs of its previous 'Irish' existence. Sale of cask ale ceased in early 2022 due to very low demand.

Historic Interest

Reopened 15/3/2025 as Salmon of Knowledge. Temp closed 1/2/2025. Re-opened 25/5/2021 as Dockyard. Prior to this it was given a makeover by owners M&B and re-opened in April 2014 under the Stokers Arms name. In May 1996 after a refit it morphed into a branch of O'Neills. Originally styled as Times Square, this was a Bass house selling Stones Bitter.
