The pub dates from 1898 and is situated on a busy corner location close to the Bridgewater Hall and the trendy Deansgate Locks area. From the outside the pub appears to be a typical large inner-city pub, but looks can be deceptive. Inside the pub has just two rooms, one housing the main bar and another with a pool table. The decor is suprising, best described as rustic, bare wooden beams and brewing paraphenalia. The pub is extremely busy on MUFC match days with several tv's and drop down screens. Food is mainly pieminster pies with traditional accompaniments and patties

Whilst there are 4 handpumps, depending on the day of the week some handpumps may be off,

Opening times can vary depending on how busy the bar is.
