“Second time my wife and I have stayed here. Room was really nice and the food was good as well. Short walk to the nearest tram stop to get the the centre of Manchester. Staff are also really friendly”

“Went into the Griffin today after not going there for over 2 years. The Cockney landlord was really friendly and kept a good pint of holts bitter.The Beer was 10 out of 10 and I really enjoyed his company. Excellent people Skills with customers and a credit to the holts business. I could have stayed there all day with the friendly environment. I Will be coming back soon”

“Never been on a weekend but damn its banging on a Thursday with karaoke and great atmosphere. No tossers either just good, down to earth people of all ages out for a laugh. Also amazing prices on drinks. House doubles and pints for only £2.50 and very clean too. Me and my partner and our friends love this place.”

“Staff are very kind and polite as are everyone else.... It's a nice relaxed environment with a pool table and situated close to town center”

“Not been in this public house for a long time, due to moving out of manchester, but last time I was in I was with a friend and we had a brilliant day/night I would definitely recommend this public house and hopefully I will return one day to see my friend, the prices were very reasonably priced the atmosphere was so nice and the people were so chatty and made you feel so welcome I had a good laugh with some customers who my friend introduced me to… great pub!”

“Brilliant pup traditional nice people everyone you chat with very top notch service and a price you can't beat fantastic bunch of staff enjoy it every time but no phones or music or tv for some reason which if they got sorted the place would definitely be the most popular in the area great seating places and decor I'd suggest a visit to anyone going to the area 1 of the best I've been to in a very long time absolute minter Samuel smiths”

“Very friendly staff and excellent value for money food - everything on menu tastes delicious!”

“Stopped off for a quick bite to eat after a day out. We were served quickly and within a reasonable amount of time. The food was good quality, the only little tiny gripe would be the burger patty could have done with being a little flatter (see photo) and filling more of the bun, tasted great though. Prices are competitive with rival brands in the market.”

“Popped in to have a quick look inside this beautiful building and found that they had a brilliant array of nice beers on tap including some Belgium and local one's including my favourite chocolate stout and at £1.50 a pint you can't go wrong. Staff are really friendly and attentive.”

“Arrived with my Brother in law and his two sisters for his birthday meal . Absolutely demolished a portion of fish and chips followed by Apple crumble and his two half pints of bitter .He was greeted by the two ladies serving ,he is a regular and loves it here .”

“Always a good time in the corpy made too feel very welcome”

“This is a really good pub. The staff are really friendly and chatty and the prices are really good for a place so close to Manchester. There are some great offers on drinks don't be afraid to ask the staff and they will help you decide. Definitely worth a visit.”

“Nice little pub. Staff were extremely friendly & helpful can't fault the woman who served us, first visit made us feel welcome. Food What I call proper pub food, can't fault it in any way whatsoever. Perfect.”

“Visiting friends in the area and called in for a breakfast rather than have one at the Premier Inn we were staying at. Excellent value for money and well cooked. Refills on the drinks good as extras can be expensive. Pleasant staff to always a bonus...”

“Top cranky pub!! friendly locals and they have an open mic night on a Tuesday and also a karaoke night on a Saturday. Cheap pints and pool, music and friendly staff Great little local.”

“Wide selection of drinks available. Great food. Fantastic quiz on a Thursday, lots of fun and a wide variety of questions and topics.”

“It perfect. Right next to Cemetery Road tram. Free wi-fi. So I can track the planes on my Flight Radar. Have a couple of glasses of white wine. Decent company. What's not to love?”

“I gave it 5 stars because it is nostalgic to me. It was my Dads pub in the 60s, I seem to recall it was his second home. The first time I went in was my last day in school at Bishop Greer on Taylor st. I was promptly marched out. My last visit was in the 80s whilst on leave from the Army. I love the Vulcan but the locals used to call it "The Monkey".”
