Great pub in the middle of Manchester, great food on offer and amazing portion sizes. The prices are also excellent. Wide variety of food and drinks available. Highly recommend visiting if you want a quick bite to eat, and a good place to meet with friends.

I had veggie curry, asked if was any good when ordering, no response, shrugged shoulders, was horrible, should have had scampi, that looked OK. I'd say don't do stuff you can't do well. Fixed me wrong drink twice, 3rd time lucky, no hassle but what does that say about customer service? Place bit dark and old fashioned, friendly staff TBF. OK if you like football and can't be bothered looking for better food.

This was a great pub to go drinking at, having a vintage design as the name indicates and the frames add to this! I enjoyed a bottle of Corona Extra served by friendly staff at the well-presented counter and the seating is comfortable, although they had no food available sadly due to poor planning.

A proper traditional pub with freundly staff is best way way to describe this establishment. Great looking on the outside with all classic features inside. Very clean throughout with a great atmosphere which is helped by the friendly manner you are served.
