18-20 Fairfield Street, Manchester, Manchester, M1 2QF (View on Google Map)

This is more of a venue for live music than a traditional public house, and it is "only open for for gig and club night bookings", to quote the pub's Facebook page. It claims to be "the last truly independent music venue you will ever know", to quote its website. Truly a Manchester institution (but not somewhere to get a quick drink if your train's late).

Had been under threat from HS2 but that has now eased with the cancellation of the Northern sector.
