Despite the name, this bar specialises in continental beers, with a massive selection both on tap & in bottles. Bottles feature German wheat beers, strong Belgian imports, special Dutch lagers and many more from around the globe. The bar will not stock any beers which are brewed under licence. Staff are friendly & knowledgeable about the beers. Four handpumps face you as you enter. Cask beers from local breweries such as Pictish, and often Yorkshire breweries like Saltaire, Mallinsons and Roosters.

In total there are 15/keg taps split between UK and international beers. Five lines are guests which may be from the Europe or the UK. The pub is larger than it looks on the outside and makes good use of its limited space. An extremely narrow entrance consisting of narrow listed doors, this ex motor bike shop - previously a weavers cottage - brings you into a small lobby area with the end of the bar on your left. To the right there is a table in the window and a couple down the adjacent wall before an open area with a ledge for resting your drink. A steep staircase opposite the bar takes you downstairs to the recently refurbished toilets. Beyond the staircase and bar the pub opens out into a larger back room with soft furnishings. No food is served (other than bar snacks) but the pub is relaxed about bringing your own food - "you are welcome to bring your own sandwiches as long as you take your rubbish with you"! This even extends to having deliveries made to the bar. You can also bring in Fish and Chips from the excellent next door chippy, again, taking your rubbish with you. The jukebox features a wide selection of Manchester artists (and a fair amount of The Pixies) - it can be reasonably loud in the back room but is comfortable in the front seating area. The clientele are a mix of after work business men, trendy locals, beer lovers, tourists & even the odd celebrity. Under 18’s are not allowed. Well behaved dogs allowed any time.

Historic Interest

Was once a motor bike shop, prior to that a weavers cottage and the narrow double doors remain as they are as they are listed so can't be altered
