Used to sell cask ale but following the pandemic it is no longer available.
Refurbished in pleasant style in late 2014. Caters in the main for a middle-aged mixed crowd. Smartly decorated with plenty of Victorian prints, and photos of bygone days in Manchester. Of course, the eponymous waterfowl features largely in the decor too. The bar is to left with the buffet servery alongside, access to the back yard for the smoking is beyond that, the remainder of the pub is laid out in an unusual U-shaped setting for drinking and seating. It is handy for Central Coach Station and the rest of the gay village. Food service is noon till 6.30pm. Note, when DJ or a party is on, it can get loud.
According to an article in the the MEN it was originally built in the 1800’s as a schoolhouse, maps of the area show it was operating as a pub in 1845 under the name of The Ram’s Head. Just a couple of years later, in 1851, it was renamed The Hussars Tavern. Other names have included The Fleece Tavern and, in the 1970s, The Kingston Hotel when it was a Wilson's pub.
