This Wetherspoons, unlike many of the chain, is split into multiple rooms with some character. There are 4 regular beers including the local Phoenix Wobbly Bob (check behind the pillar to left of bar for these beers) with 5 guest beer pumps on the main bar. Beers are sourced largely from local and Northern microbreweries and the famous Wetherspoons "Coming Soon" signs being a rarity. Good relations with a number of breweries often result in specials and rebranded ales being available. A cider is always available though rarely real cider. Due to its excellent transport links it is a good place to start or finish a pub crawl in Manchester City Centre. As with most Wetherspoon pubs you know what you are going to get in food range but this is definitely one of the best ones. During the festive period wobbly bob is exchanged for Bradfield Farmers Belgian Blue
