“New Bar/Restaurant opened in Bramhall/Woodford. We was welcomed upon arriving and was quickly shown to our table. Excellent service upon arrival. The waitress came to the table with the menu's and information us with specials of the day. We ordered drinks (2 Coffees and a Large Coke) the Coffees was made perfect, probably the best I've had in a Pub/Restaurant. We ordered from the set 3 course menu £16.95. We chose... Starter: 1 soup of the day and 2 black pudding fritters. All perfect, hot and perfect size. Mains: 1 Fish Cake and 2 6oz steaks and Chips. Steaks should have been mid rare. Unfortunately we had to send the first 2 steaks back as they was well under cooked in fact you could say they was still mooing. The staff handed it in a professional manner and brought back two perfectly cooked steaks. EXCELLENT SERVICE. Pudding: This was perfect. Two Stickey Chocolate Puddings. Delicious. Overall we had a great experience, I can't fault any point of the Experience. The staff and service was excellent and made the afternoon every enjoyable, THANK YOU. We will definitely be going back in the very near future. A small add on: Toilets are up stairs, perfectly clean. Disabled toilets are on the ground floor.”

“In Manchester for wedding anniversary and stumbled on this pub as it was near our hotel. Absolutely wonderful to hear live music, total mixture of ages of customers, made to feel very welcome so much so we returned the next night. Very professional staff and bouncers, all public areas very clean and well maintained. Only downfall was they ran out of glasses and some drinks were in plastic tumblers, which at the age of over 50 was not ideal but as I said didn't put us off as we came back the next evening. Very nice customers as well”

“What an unexpected surprise! Spontaneously went for dinner on Saturday evening. They found us a table in the upstairs area which was lovely. Food was delicious and the service was attentive and helpful. We returned to the downstairs bar for cocktails. All the little details made it a lovely place and we had a wonderful evening. Thank you!”

“A favourite of ours since moving to Manchester. Friendly staff, chilled vibe and great selection of beers in an authentic, vintage environment. It's a hidden gem, down some stairs in a basement and stands out from the usual garish, chain or flashy cocktail bars of Spinningfields.”

“Beautiful place to dine in or stay out on the terrace. Big selection of beers. Very nice food too.”

“The place delivers what it promises. If you want to have cheap chicken wings, this is your place. If you want to have cheap AND SPICY chicken wings. This is absolutely the place to be. I took 5 of the spiciest wings. I had to order milk after eating 2. The cocktails are quite good too.”
