“I came from London to watch a football game, the Hotel is right next to the Tram station, St Peters Square which was amazing and made everything easy, also is was like an 8min walk to the Shopping Centre and all other shops which made it easy. The Hotel staff were nice, the lounge was chilled and comfortable, the room was modern, clean, a bit on the small side but doesn't really matter since I'm not living there, the bed was so so comfortable and a clean and powerful shower. I've been to Manchester a few times now and this was the first time I stayed in this hotel and I will definitely be making it the hotel I stay at from now on.”

“It was a great experience with my colleagues for a birthday. We didn't eat, but we heard a lot about how delicious their food. We will try ASAP. Thanks everyone for serving on that night. We highly recommend their cocktails. We will be back soon.”

Splendid worth during that time 12.00pm-7.00pm £2.50 a 16 ounces on chose lagers I had carling which was right on the money. In general I would suggest a visit.”

“Great little bar with fabulous staff! We hired the back room for a small birthday party. Adam was great, asking what drinks and music we'd like in advance. The room is small but it's big enough for 30 people to mingle. There's table service - and the staff were fantastic in operating the tab system, so you only pay for your own drinks. No food, but we could probably have ordered bar snacks. This was a lovely venue for a small party and the evening was made really special by the great staff.”

“A fabulous little pub in the corner of the indoor market. Always a friendly welcome and the real ale is superb, without fail. You really can't beat it.”

“Friendly and atmospheric micro pub, run by Phil and Wendy. Always feel welcome, it may be small, but that's not a bad thing. Still plenty of room, excellent choice of drinks, and a chatty place to meet up. Highly recommended.”

“Landlady has a done a great job of the beer garden and is very chatty & friendly! A local pub with friendly locals.”

“Did our tour Saturday morning, Gary the tour guide was brilliant and really entertaining, right balance of humour and information, the brewery has the historical and brand new brewing equipment which makes it stand out as a great tour, we finished off in the Arden Arms to sample some of the drinks we heard about. Sad to hear the Unicorn Brewery is moving to new premises and from April next year these tours will not continue.”

“Very lovely pub. Lovely waitress called Evie who did a fab job. She was cool. Hope to see her again soon. Great food, exquisite! Very clean and tidy, could lick the floors and it would taste clean!!”

“Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. A great range of beer and its own brewery beers too make for a fantastic village pub.”

“Very laid back and relaxing alehouse with fabulous decor. Beer and ale very reasonably priced compared to some similar establishments we have visited.”

“Called down memory lane it had the warm fell it had 50+ years ago . getting lemonade and crisps then always wanted a pint .the staff was just as nice still have the smile on my face”

“Went here on a Sunday and enjoyed the plant based lunch immensely! Lovely salads and fritata were on offer, which my husband and I both thought were the best things we'd eaten out for a long time. Also lovely craft ale on sale, way better than anything else I've drunk in Withington for a long time!”

“Excellent very busy pub. Brilliant staff and ale. The regulars are incredibly loyal to the place and always make an effort to contribute to any events etc.”

“What a great traditional pub, we went on poetry night in aid of parkinsons finished off with live music, great choice of beers and very friendly atmosphere, brilliant night”

“This is what a pub should be. Great Ale served at the table, great conversation where everyone joins in, no muzak, no telly, no slots, no lager louts And its now changed, there inverted mushrooms on the ceiling to dampen the non existing sound that reaches the ears of the idiot upstairs.”

“Great place. IPA's and cocktails. I had the pineapple and strawberry mojito and it was really good. Nice pics of old Bolton. Really nice how it has been designed. Big chunky wooden tables. Few seats outside too. They do food but haven't had a chance to try yet.”

“Me and the Mrs went on steak night and were blown away by the quality of the food and service. Initially got a chipped wine glass but when sorted the wine was beautiful and the steak out of this world. The chef was kind enough to give us the ingredients to the anchovy butter sauce that we can't wait to replicate. Not to be missed !”
