Located within Manchester Victoria station to the right of the main entrance towards Corporation Street, this sister pub to the Piccadilly Tap is a conversion from station use that opened to the public in October 2023.

The main bar is a long thin room with the bar opposite as you enter. There is an electronic board displaying real-time train departure information high to the left to help the customer to decide whether there is time for another drink. Since opening the pub has become a firm favourite for regulars and visitors alike. There is terrestrial TV with the sound subdued and music is often played.

There is quite a large largely covered outside area behind the bar with bench tables where you can observe passing trams as they leave the station. For toilets use the station toilets 30ms away.

Information for this venue is provided by the Central Manchester Branch of CAMRA
