Reopened 16/03/15 after a major refurbishment. The bar has moved to the back wall, where it was before 2003. A more upmarket Joseph Holt pub on two levels with the emphasis on the food operation. Despite this there are now four real ales available via 2 sets of handpumps serving the same set of beers. The beers are from Holt or Bootleg. Although the pub opens at 9am Fri-Sun alcohol is not available before 11am unless you are eating. This is part of an enclave of pubs on Exchange Square, which is now a popular drinking location. As such it can get crowded on weekend evenings or before events at the nearby Manchester arena. It still retains its traditional exterior with stone clad name at the top of the building.
