Reopened in February 2022. It did not reopen after the 2021 lockdown because of structural work that needed to be done to the building that contains the Chop House.

A low ceiling pub with an ornate restaurant attached that specialises in traditional British food. Sam's dates back to 1872 and has been on the current premises since the 1950's. The bar is ahead of you as you come down stairs from the street. There are 6 handpumps though usually only 3 beers on. There is a small space to the left with high barrel tables and a larger area to the right of the bar.

Steeped in history and once patronised by LS Lowry who is commemorated with a life-sized statue at the bar.
